We Are (poem)

I see you with my eyes
and know you with my heart
your essence
that which is good in you
and the darkness, too
and feel your depths
right through me
that which is different
and the semblance, too

we are
alike
we are
but not the same
we are
two hearts beating apart
we are
the same skin

I see you with my I eyes
I feel the you in me
I know the me in you

connections
lighting up
one by one
like stars in the night sky
weaving the web
that ties us together

we are
two minds
we are
two souls
we are
two bodies
we are
connected.

Something from a dream that had the feeling of an epiphany… Sort of like a spiritual umbilical cord that links us together.

I am a very creative person and it’s my way of dealing with the world, inside and out. I am only happy when I am making things or painting or writing. There are just not enough hours in the day…. I am into poetry and photo manipulation at the moment and also dabbling in photography. :-)

    That is as should be and perfectly in a poem….is. Lovely writing for an image-idea that is as truth as love eternal. I love the image of flowers..tied to a roundness that seems a perfect union. Rosa
