Motionless

There you are,
Right beside me.

I can hear you
Calling my name,
I can feel your fingers,
Your soft touch, on my face.

But still I make no move.
I hear you crying out my name,
Over and over,
Needing my attention.

I’m falling.
My mind is going somewhere
You can’t go to.

You try to grab me,
And still I slip away,
Like the wave slips
From the hand of a child
Who desperately tries to grab it.
