A Glorious Purpose

I went back in time.

I went to a place without concerns.

A kid was waving at me.

The kid that I once knew.

The kid in me.

He asked me what I'm doing here.

And all I could hear

was why did you leave me behind?

His words speared me.

I went back to the present.

But didn't stay put.

I searched for him everywhere.

I looked in places where he went.

But nothing was there.

I heard his voice, echoed in my ears.

I knew he was close.

But it turns out that he was inside my mind all along.

Hidden in plain sight.

And now, we can fulfill our glorious purpose.
