I Think (Poem)
I think
Tonight
You said more
Without words
Than you’ve ever
Told me
With
Tears hide eyes
Estranging hearts
By too much
Love unrequited
Passion produced
By a lack
Of passion
Where there is
An absence
Of direction
Beckons forth
An abundant burst
And thirst
For humanity
I think
Tomorrow
You will feel
What I feel
Today
Time separates us
Emotions connect
To hidden places
Eternal bliss of
The quietest kiss
Whenever is right
Now
I think
Yesterday
Is bigger
Than today
Smaller
Than tomorrow
Impossible to tell
What tears say
When eyes close
Frightened with
Fear
Ashamed of
Shame
Enraged by
Wrath
Unwilling to reveal
What is actually
Real
Let the poet
Speak to that
I think
I found it
Today
Yesterday is
Gone
Tomorrow is after
Now
We are
The same
Grasping at
Difference
Measuring worth
By what is
Seen
But not
Felt
I think
Today
You found me
And I found you
By remembering
Yesterday
We can reach
For tomorrow
