Do You

Do you see it, do you know What the mirror sees, how you glow? Your eyes so bright so fascinating Your smile so wide, illuminating You love so well, your soul so free You embrace it all, even me Your life seems so simple, you make it so Although there is much I don't see, or even know You often can wander, amuse yourself When I would be stricken, and confused - Myself Things I would never dare, not even consider You lunge into 'thout care, 'thout even a dither You laugh when you smile, and smile thence thus The whole world is your oyster, quick joy your lust I can see you now, walking, bright-eyed, into life the grand marquee, the circus, all strife You don't care if anyone is near, beside you Don't care for anyone to protect, to hide you So where will you go, and what will you do When all others fail, and I in shadow, lover, mute Do you think of consequence, of failure, like me Or do you surge on, no care, conscience free I often wonder, as I wander in my analytical fugue Do you wonder, feel, love, know, as I do?
