A Poem by Kiri J


 

Face to face

So close

Connected

And still so separate.

 

I don’t feel worthless.

I don’t feel shame.

I’m simply tired,

Over the game.

 

I wish I understood

This spiritual bond

Created between two

Who know and love.

Who know the past and

Want the future and

Crave the present

Always.

 

No tragic, twisted mess in me

Is longing for a sense of self,

I’ll do that on my own…

 

All I want

Is just to see

More than my reflection

In your eyes,

Staring back at me.
