LOST
Candice James
Copyright 1995
You are rain,
Cool and wet,
Comprised of heaven’s tears.
Sleet,
Icy to the heart,
Cutting through flesh and spirit.
A Rainbow,
Untouchable and elusive
In your realm of illusion.
A teardrop,
Lost in a waterfall .
An image of broken sadness
Flailing in the fog.
I am not God.
I cannot change you.
I am not Jesus.
I cannot save you.
You are lost
And I’m as helpless
As a broken heart.
