Straight lace
Can you see straight through to where my heart
aches?
Or like a doctor
do you only use a stethoscope
that hears only
and sees nothing
but a smile sometimes
on the doctors own face?
From pleasure, pain, or someother place
Smiles are helpful,
but even a smiling eye
doesnt see
to penetrate
the solitudes of an invisible matter
that really fills space
causes the pressures
force the radiations of my soul
to travel to nourish the webs of my senses.
do you?
can you see what I feel
if the radiations of your soul only eclipse my own
to shed a light of differences?
void of familiarities
as the early light of morning
is familiar to all.
..is but only one sun laced shadow rising
gone by evening
one familiar morning we might share .....
come around all the time
and only once
as my heart has grown to ache daily the same
be more alone in the same shadows
as they pass again
than before
the sun
it never rise and fall the same day to day
till it cross both the two of us together
sometime
unlikely
had it not crossed that way
sometime
past and tomorrow
before and after
today
make a lace
rise the sun
to see together
either of the blind smiles
on either of our blinded faces
