LOST & FOUND

I went over hard

fell on my face

cutoff at my knees

I felt no disgrace

at my cries  my tears


I had no idea of what took place



then standing again

not understanding

not all of me was there

that parts I didnt think I could shake

endedup in the LOST & FOUND


endedup in a lousy box

overflowing with needless and needed things

things that didnt matter a damn

that anyone looking through it

would waste their time to steal


there were things that were tempting

but wouldnt fit

werent the right size

would have looked odd on

because it didnt belong to them


so those waited waited in the LOST & FOUND

as I did

waiting waiting for you


in the time that followed

I wasnt as fast

some spark had cooled

juices chilled

waiting waiting for you


I didnt know if my family  friends knew

and didnt say

or made excuses

for what went away


however I didnt sit still

unaware my colours changed

or I ate myself

in ways different  and alone

so I waited waited for you



the LOST & FOUND has its place

as I have mine

when unexpectedly

you arrived


and you recognised something of yours

something you didnt lose

but hoped to find

and the waiting waiting

fell behind


though others things were tempting

they wouldnt fit

werent the right size

would have looked wrong

didnt belong


Now were not waiting

weve been LOST and found

lost and FOUND

we arent waiting

weve been LOST & FOUND
