I look for you everywhere
Every second of everyday
I look for you and I find you
I seek you out
Create the spirit of you in every action.
I find you in my giving,
In my connections with people I never
would have connected with before.
Before you taught me what it is to
Connect with people
Through a concerted effort
To see one another for who we truly are.
I find you in my passion,
Pulsing through my blood.
I hear you say, "Yes, now is the time for action"
And I listen.
And i show up.
Because I look for you
And find you in the news
Sitting on cement, arms linked,
In articles on the just treatment of humanity,
In the eyes of people I know
I can learn from.
I look for you everywhere,
And I find you in everything good,
And difficult, and necessary.
And still, it's not enough.
