Being

I thought maybe you could recognise me

If I showed you all my pieces

The broken and the beautiful

The sharp edges and depleted 

 

I thought maybe you would know my face

If I swept back my autumnal wave of hair

So you could look straight into my emerald eyes

And tell me what was there

 

I thought maybe you would sense my soul

If I laid it bare in every line I breathed 

That maybe you would breathe me in

And chase me through a dream

 

Alone 

 

\'I think therefore I am\'

Some philosopher once said

I think of all I could have been 

But just had thoughts instead
