Lost.

Yesterday, I got lost.
But,
I didn’t realize it until I
reached my destination. Somehow,
I got to where I was going
without a map —

my phone died,
I couldn’t recognize any strangers
on the sidewalk with faces
that looked like they knew
where they were going either.

But,
I’m sure they arrived where they’d intended,
just as I did, and
I’m sure, like me,
they’d had no idea
they were even trying
to get somewhere
in the first place,
or that they were even

lost.
