Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

Haziness

There are things
I’d want to tell you
But they lie so deep
Under a haze of confusion
That it isn’t possible
To see them clearly

They are there perplexing
Yet not so mysterious
They whisper of the known
Of the unknown

They sigh of love
Caring and needing
Sometimes in a moment of stillness
I hear your name
On their every breath
