Monsoon #3

Once not so long ago I was whole and confidant-

I was close enough to knowing who I am that I at least knew what I did not want,

If I could not figure out what I did.

Now I sit here and write by candlelight as the monsoon rains fall

-Gently this time-

Completely lacking in force or passion.

Yet, unlike me, oblivious to the fact that they are not what we expect them to be.

I am fully aware that I have not been what I am.
