Absence

I've been absent lately,
away from many,
alone,
but not really alone,
just not here.

Not "in the moment",
not engaging,
not giving,
but not taking.

I've been hiding,
in plain sight,
wearing bright colors,
and honestly trying to get noticed.

I've been floating around in my life,
I haven't made a plan and stuck to it in a long while,
I just go with the flow,
but then times goes faster than I want it to,
and before I know, I've been gone too long.

I've been absent lately,
and alone.

I guess I'd better get back soon.
Miss you.
