I have read you
through and through...
It’s always the same you..
You as a person, so unkind -
standing busily far behind the crowd -
contriving to look busy.
But your eyes
have fathoms
of unexplored terrain,
As if you were
forever
in anticipated mourning of life...
which you try in vain
to unchain
in a mute expression
of unsaid things.
