Where has my care gone?  I’ve been going over in my mind wondering where it might be hiding.  Maybe it disappeared when I retired, maybe it went into hiding when my clock flipped to 70.  Maybe it’s right here and I’m not really looking for it.

Why am I not looking?  Well I’ve cared for years and found it has been an empty feeling lately.  I’ve cleaned house and someone always trashes it.  I cooked but don’t care to eat.  I read but forget the words.  I pray and wonder how and why.  I hope my caring hasn’t got up and left because I stopped looking for it, abused it or just stopped caring about it.  Please, please come and find me.  Not caring make me sad and lonely.
