Disappeared// Poem

 Do not be afraid when I disappear 

Without a word or a trace to my 

Name I left to chase my dreams 

With my arms opened wide and a heart 

On the mend to heal from its wounds but 

It’s has scars that serves as a reminder of 

The battlefields it went through, do not 

Be afraid of where I strayed off to always know

My path is different than the others 

Do not look up at sky for I am not there, 

It is not painted for I am alive and well, Do 

Not go to hospital for I am not there either 

I am not ill or hurt, do not go to the police 

For I am not in a cell, I did not become a crook 

Or thief in the night, do not look in the graveyard 

For I am not buried amongst those dead but yet 

They are living beyond the physical realm, I am 

Not in the homelessness shelter or on the streets, 

For I am clothed and housed 

Do not look for me in my bed for I am not 

Asleep, Do not look for me in the stars for 

I am shining here on earth, Do not look 

For me in the ocean for I did not drown, 

Do not be afraid for when I disappear, I am 

Walking with my lord for he is my shepherd 

That I shall not want, for he provides for me 

And protects me, I am walking in his will and 

In the plans he has for me
