Reaching Out, Reaching In
Reaching Out Reaching In
One connection is busy,
one connection, not used.
I reach out to my family,
They do not understand my call.
I reach out to friends,
They are busy in their own world.
I reach out to acquaintances,
They don’t know who I am.
I reach out to God,
who is listening but not talking.
Silence.
All signs point inward as I search outward.
Navigating by my will and not by what is clearly presented to me.
Why do I hesitate to Reach In?
I skirt around the edges,
Sad or frightened that I feel this is all there is.
Sad or frightened that I feel this is less than what I need.
Sad or frightened that I feel that to Reach In
is less than…
Everything.
Who can go to the depth with me?
Me.
Who can go to the depth and still love me?
Me.
Who and what is me?
You.
And who are you?
Everything.
