Lose me in the crowd
Where I’m no longer seen
I still exist; I am not dead.
Our purpose together finished instead.
I am vibrant, breathing, living.
I am still working and giving
You are now stronger.
I am needed less or no longer.
My job here is concluded, done
This time has been a meaningful one.
You are stronger, changed I see
Remember our learning, our journey
when you think of me.
Sometimes too, I think of you,
You just can’t see when I do.
I sadly put my burden down
Only to pick up another one,
and pass your care to others now.
But it’s true,
I’m happy too somehow,
to step back, set you free,
and let you grow.
To know my work is alive,
has depth and flow.
It does not mean that I forget
It does not mean,
I’ve moved on yet.
It does not mean that
I don’t think of you,
…I do.
I’m just not there
Accessible, it’s true.
I’m in the crowd
Just not beside you.
I am not dead, instead
I still breathe, deeply in,
a different world,
a different scene.
A win with loss all in one
This is good, this outcome.
Take comfort
Our journey together
finished as it should.
This was always
understood.
