Lost

MyWriters Poetry Prompt
22nd prompt of 2019
08 - 14 September

Some things are lost
because we had them
in our possession

that can no longer be found

Other things are lost
because they passed by us
before our eyes
in full view

An invitation
An offer to hold office
An opportunity to a better occupation

that can no longer be revisited

While one can sometimes be found again,
the other will remain lost forever.
