I Know Who You Are

I Know Who You Are

A Poem by audrie

You're like the eclipse of the moon
half here, half there

You're like the stars in the sky
a billion miles away

You're like the ocean
so mysterious deep underneath

You're like a wild bird
easily scared into flight

You're like a river and the rapids
unknowingly changing your flow

You're like a blustery day
always changing directions

You're like a canyon
beautiful but deadly if lost inside

You're like storm clouds
dark and grey emotions

I'm lost in trying to understand you
I yearn to change you ways
but you're not capable of change
so we'll go our separate ways

we all have our flaws, if we can't connect to them as a whole, it will be hard to connect to someone else. There is so much truth in this piece, about relations that gone in separate ways, never again to be repair as it was in the past, but can be repair through friendship and forgiveness. Thanks for sharing such wonderful piece my friend...

You're absolutely welcome friend. . . thanks for the thoughtful review!
I like this because of the truth of it. So many people naively go into relationships trying to understand someone and it's not always possible or even needed. Why is it necessary to understand someone to love them? And of course change can only come from within, we cannot implement it on someone else.
