Back/slash
You
think you know
if
I taught you anything
it
is that you don’t know me
you
don’t know
where
they come from
the
scars
wrinkled
out over years of attacking them
yes
them those of you
who
belong to
anything
but the end
which
is all I have ever held on to
if
I made a friend
it
was worth the staccato
beats
and threats
of
my Dad
absentee
to my daughter
and
you want to know why I’m fascinated
by
water
all
I know is the pour
and
the heart
so
hungry
it
will go without food for a glimpse
of
the holy
I
have seen it in you
I
have seen it in the long far-off greeting
of
a fellow lonely
only
love would allow
to
get anywhere
near
me
I
watch for you in the clouds
and
in the trees
and
I know I know
yes
I know
that
you are coming for me.
