Do You See?
when you stare into my eyes what do you see?
do you see the eternal turning of the heavens and our names overlapping written there?
do see the depths of the oceans and how they refuse to be tamed, much like our own passions?
do you see the foundations of the earth shifting and settling the same way peace settles on your heart when I’m in your arms?
do you see the fire of the planet’s own heart bursting forth orgasmically as I shudder and shout out your name?
do you see numbers and signs and divine wisdom rising forth from the creator’s own perfect design?
do you see….
me?

Perfect ending. It’s a blessing when they do, but a curse when they don’t.

All we can hope for, really. The irony being that we can never truly know. Beautifully penned, Tara.

In a way… I do think we know when someone sees us. Because there is a connection there. I’m a bit of a mystic though… for me, it’s as tangible has physically holding a thread in my palm.
