Unacquainted

"Unacquainted"

You're looking at me,

Are you looking through me?

What do you see?

You've met me

Do you know me?

Know me for me?

You touch me,

Do you feel me?

You are listening,

Are you paying attention?

Can you discern the blind spot?

I know you heard me,

But do you understand?

How can you know me?

If you don't know my scars?

Every scar has a story

How can we be?

You don't know how I got here

How can you rub my feet?

If you don't know the miles it walked

You see the smiles,

What about the tears behind?

How can you know the becoming?

You don't know the years behind

My realm of dreams,

You know nothing of.

How can we be?

Your realm of dreams,

I want to see.

Its entirety,

I need to feel.

I need to know you, for you.

Dearly beloved,

Let's take a tour...
