Missed?

Sitting and relaxing, while thinking I may miss someone or something…
unsettles me…
But was I settled before I thought I was going to miss out?
What caused the feelings of missing out?

Shifting to focus on what I have, with the time to think about what I do not.
The time to feel I am missing someone or something, but…
I am not.
I miss myself.

I sit and breath and believe I am enough.
I relax and let what isn’t pass by.
I remember who sits and breaths in this air.
I am all I need to remember right now.

The time fades by with every molecule of something.
The moment shifts with every atom of all.
The feeling of missing is no longer here…
But the thought runs still like a lake untouched by wind.
The thought of what was won’t leave my presence.

I focus and release to relieve the idea.
I think of what I’d like to do.
I imagine the future of what could be.
I feel the smile of all I want.
I leave the present, yet again…

Not here, but there… somewhere not now.
