Gone 2

Gone 2

My lights are on
But I'm not home
I've gone to look for me.
It's on my own
That I have gone
In hopes of finding me.
I don't recall
The time at all
When I began to seek,
Or from the wall
The picture fall
That kept me on my feet.
I only know
As on I go
If you run into me...
Just say, "Hello."
And gently show
The pathway back to me.
