I See You

I see you
Stealing glances
From the corners of your eyes

I see you
Staring through closed eyelids
When I'm looking the other way

I see you
Not your body
Not your movements

I see you
Not your gestures
Not the armor you wear

I see you
Like a single cell
Under a microscope

I see you
Without my eyes
In the darkest dark

I see you
With my heart
I know you see me too.
