Alive

By Dawn Bucci •
I am alive, but I'm alone
I am empty, but I'm whole.
I am crawling, but I walk,
I am learning, but I can't talk.
I am here, but I'm gone,
I am lost, but I'm home.
I'm in the dark, but the sun shines on my face,
I am walking towards you, but I don't know this place.
I'm in a foreign land, but with you I stand, together we're alive, but alone I strive.
