The Light Carries Memories

Last night I felt my Self
Slip back inside myself
Sometimes my body
Is only a shell that others see
But the me that I know
Has left
I wonder, where does she go?

She rests
In a field of gold
Listens to birds sing
Feels the touch of a butterfly wing
Watches the warm sun and the cool breeze dance in the shade of a tree
Laughs as the ants crawl on her toes

The light carries memories
As she returns home
