Alone We Are

Was it in a dream? I watched you! Welcoming me,but not me,I watched like a hawk in the forest. Distraught you became, alone you thought. You are not alone. I am at the center of you,sometimes watching the world through your eyes as disconcerting as this may be. What have you done that I should be so near? A gift to me? Oh how wicked is this place? Protect you I must, a short while I can only hope. A stranger to me seeing the world through you! My life is my own....not yours. Speaking words I do not wish to know. Distraught I become,alone I think. Watching the world through my eyes. Keeping your promises.Do you keep mine? Welcoming you, not me....as you watch. Alone we think. Alone we are.
