Poem: Lost Child.
Lost Child.
.
.
You were truly family
Seen at intervals
All through childhood,
Familiar and accepted
Without a single thought,
A part of my life.
We all married
We had our families
But you left yours
To begin a new life
Somewhere secret.
I have not seen you again
And it has been
Another lifetime
For many years.
If I saw you once more
I would not know you.
