I looked for you

As soon as sun broke dawn
My shadow stood 3 stories tall
But I searched til it was gone


I had no luck

The rain had poured all day
My being drenched from head to toe
But you were still astray


I persevered

The winds matched my stride
My efforts countered ounce for ounce
But, ******, how I tried


And then I learned

The sun defeats each night
The skies clear up, The winds die down
Once you've lost your will to fight


I only hope

Above everything else
If I cannot find my other
At the least, I find myself
