Stranger


You hide in a perennial veil;
a veil I try so hard to lift,
for me to touch and discover
the beauty underneath.

Y
et all that I see

is the light of your darkness.
Darkness.
Or is it, your true likeness?

I
long to unravel
the mystery
behind your innocence…
thoughts…
feelings…
dreams…
you…

B
ut you create a distance

that leaves my heart
in doubt.

A
ll that I have

is the sound of your presence,
the warmth that you send
from afar

reaching me cold.

T
ell me

just when,
just when can we touch?

Did you compose it, KCee? All I can say is, Wow! Indeed beautiful and very well representing the title... I agree with mirage2g!

wow! that's very genuine feeling...anybody go through all that... dryness, emptiness...
I always believe that if you're an artist, you're a poet too... very imaginative!:)
