losing without posssing

why do i feel lost a bit today
what have i lost
something i had promised never
to relish the possession of

whitewash all the walls
dont let them remind me
that we stood by them
someday
to just stand and stare
as if
you really care

we mediated in the verandah
prayed selflessly
and then i also saw
a recoil
of all the retribution
all the distrust
of the winds
that could not wait
for the lakes to refill
when it rains
after summer
winds devoured
tears filled lake
