Who Is This
Who is this person I once knew
as intimately as my own needs and desires?
This entity so apart from me
that I find I must learn more?
He draws my thoughts and fills my heart,
'gainst his pull I have no defense,
save that of his own welfare.
He cheers me beyond my own capacity,
causes a maelstrom within my thoughts
and when anger rears it's ugly head
a ray of pure, sweet light shines through
and I am swayed. Nay!
I am caught.
And, as always we come back to one another.
This bond, unbreakable, this soul unbondable,
a paradox. This piece of my own heart,
that I do not fathom yet in depth
nor ever truly shall.
