Sorrow Away Goes

Sorrow Away Goes
Is sorrow a way?
Can sorrow away
go?
Going.
The restless speak of their hurt,
but no one is there to hear.
Can this sorrow be
the disconnection of myself
from the oceans that call?
(Sorrow away goes)
How can I be and still not be?
(Sorrow away goes)
Can mountains cry out of joy
although no one embraces its trees?
Because they can, sorrow away goes.
So much it does that they can feel
our pain although we can't feel ours,
numb in distractions,
we forget what being means
until sorrow away goes.
