Chasing the fog

The mist is rolling in
Swallowing you, swallowing me.
And I run to get to you,
But I can’t see you.
Wait for me.
Don’t be gone.

The mist surrounds me
Like a thick wall.
I turn left and I turn right
But I can’t see you.
I’m trying to catch a shadow
But it’s long gone.

The mist captures me.
It’s like a cage that locks me in.
Are you there? I can feel you.
But I can’t see you.
And while I was busy chasing the fog,
You broke free and walked into the light.
