The Circular Reference of Wrong Words

Many Moons have come and gone
Added up

I take inventory in the second person, sometimes third person
     Yet I am divisible by one

I wonder
If the broken arrow Eros left behind
Will Heal 
     Or seal
     Or return to the Earth
     Beneath the footfalls of my Dreaming
Y is always a variable


I yearn for a deeper Depth
Yet I fear
     I can only go so deep
It's a circular reference
An error of sorts 


I used to dream of Her
I used to dream of You

Now
I take inventory in the second person, sometimes third person

I know the fool I am
     Wrong words
     That came out wrong 
     Were interpreted wrong
     Because they were wrong words 
          you see
They couldn't be 
Anything but Wrong
     As such
     They could never be Right
(I stood no chance to marvel in the Light
          Of your uncommon Mind)

Am I wrong
To interpret anything
But Hate
From Her
From You?
          What if Y equals 'let's start over?'


Strong words are Action
Strong words are Creation
Strong words are Intention

Strong words are Everything
          …If they are right

But mine were wrong

…I take inventory plain and simple, there is no second person, nor third
Just me, I am one
One wishes that Y equaled your friendship


If shame did not exist within, there would be no walls between us, no fear.


I remain,

Lesley
