Future me

Into this night

We slip and

Creep slide fall

Hollowed wide

Gaze for the

Dark pull settle.

Crawl. What is.

Once there were

Distant railyards,

Far clanging,

Cold chill air

Foreign city

Wandering youth.

I'm older now

Wiser, lived in,

Better worn,

Boots trodden

Miles and all that.

What would I give

To again, though I

Do return, guide you

Fest to your futured

Life. 

Sometimes it

Would be otherwise

But I was there

My future me

Guiding, holding close

Minding you as you

Stumbled through the

Mystery.

You and I are one,

A cycle of faith

Of care of kindness

And so

We become

At one.

I suppose

These times

Forever connected

And you forge

My future

Way.
