Where I Am Is Where I Am Not
A Villanelle

Where I am is where I am not
Casting myself instead to you
Yearning for the touch ever sought
-
Anxious and waiting, days fraught
Losing heart, the pieces now few
Where I am at is where I am not
-
Such magic I believed I’d caught
Certain I was I’d found what’s true
Yearning for the touch ever sought
-
Yes, Time and I, oh how we’ve fought
Reminders of all I’d undo
Where I am at is where I am not
-
To forget you, I think I ought
Too much need, in you, I imbue
Yearning for the touch ever sought
-
You onwards lost, and I distraught
Forever hoping to break through
Where I am is where I am not
Yearning for the touch ever sought
