Where You Are Poem, by William Brandon Mulkey, at My poetic side

Where do I exist when I close my eyes

When I imagine all the oceans and the birds in the skies

If no one else is looking am I still where I stand

Or do I disappear to land with feet in the sand

Do I appear to who is near, in this same form

Still molded in this mess, this life, this everyday norm

Or am I every place at once, inside of everything

That shade of blue, the chance you blew, that song you love to sing

Can I choose the place I want to go or the place I want to lay

Can I search the entire earth for you, just so I can say

That no matter where you go or the hour in the day

Wherever you exist, is where I’d always stay

~Brandon Mulkey
