Searchlights

Questions swirling in my head,
thoughts flying through my mind,
all tracing back to you.

Did I hurt you with my words?
Are you wounded by my actions?
I strive for peace.

I feel so restless,
I'm waiting for you to come,
say it's ok.

We're funny things
in a funny world
made up of oddity.

You worry me,
I think you're on the edge,
and I pray.

Angels protect you,
help from Heaven sent,
to guide you back my way.

I don't know where you are,
lost in the colorful crowd,
maybe standing to the side.

My eyes search,
guided by the One
who knows all.

Is it you?
Or are you a mask,
sent to distract?

I dive deeper into my map,
re-reading my directions,
following them beyond the letter.

I will find you,
or will you find me?
In perfect time.
