drifter’s melody

arqios

 

drifters’ melody

 

 

I see us there,

still tracing our lines,

A fractal caught

in the same design.

 

The shadows have stretched,

the layers have grown,

Since the days of secrets

we called our own.

 

You may see a fool

for the way I run,

But I am the shadow,

and you are the sun—

 

Two parts of a pattern

that won't untie,

No matter the distance

or how many years drift by.

    Cryptic this is a beautiful and insightful poem that speaks to me.
    "You may see a fool
    for the way I run,
    But I am the shadow,
    and you are the sun—"
    What a wonderful way to place the tie between two. Metaphoric for sure and so more applicable in that light. Nicely written and a fave my friend
