I've been joking these past several weeks that I've forgotten how to hold a normal conversation (optimistically assuming this is a skill I had at some point). In some trauma and stress training activities from the other week, I learned that this is actually one of many potential normal responses to stressful situations. Some of us experience something of thought-cramping in our head and have trouble beginning to unravel it. At the same time, others (my wife) process by thinking out loud, which can make my processing and sharing that much slower. Thanks to Rebekah for her patience with me in this.

To find these missing words
sun-stained paper folded in a bottle
floating on the waves
tumbling day after day
a long forgotten source, a long way from here
and an uncertain end
awaiting a friend
unknownthese few written words, perhaps little to say
unheard
what will it take to find these missing words?
like a dream forgotten
that Daniel will tell
a hidden mystery
unveiled
what will they become?
they may move no one
yet in being found, to emerge to the chance
is a hope tucked inside
captive of the tide
and might my thoughts wash up to your shore?
cannot be sure
and might I be looking for yours
looking for yours?
