I Find Myself

I find myself
Once again
Looking in boxes
That have been
Sitting
In the back
Of the closet
For years.

I find myself
Again and again
Through poems
And paragraphs
And stories
And legends.

I find myself
Once again
Listening
To old tunes
And thinking about
All
The old places.

I find myself
Again and again
Thinking of when
Remembering
You...
The way you
Used to be
Before the storm.

I find myself
Once again
In the visions
Of my dreams
Perfectly
Like it was
Before the floods
Of life
Washed
It all away.

I find myself
Again and again
To be
Not that different
Than I
Have always been
I did not run
At least
And I always
Stayed true
To what
I felt.

I find myself
Remembering
Too much
Regretting
Too much...
And don't even
Try to tell me
That I
Am not missed too.
A city is
Rebuilt
Eventually
Everything
Meant to be
Will rise again
From the ashes.
