the search party
it's no use
there is nothing
in these woods
but darkness
and false hope
my inner child is lost
and will never be
found with a flashlight
certainly not tonight
or tomorrow
I just have to live
with the sorrow
you can all go home
I thank you for your
assistance
but I am heading back
on the path of
least resistance
and I will just
be grateful
I still have
my wits about me,
some family and friends,
a resiliency that weakens
and a dark lake
of mystery
that forever deepens
