Not quite me


That was wrong, what I said. My words
Stumbled over themselves. Just a flicker caught in slurred
Liaison. I wish you could see my eyes turned upwards
In the light like a sunset slightly blurred.

She dances, that mirror with no pain
Breaking away from me. Just within my shying reach
Lies her land. Maple woods’ shade hides its glimmer all lain
In sandstone on the tide forgotten beach.

Remember me. It’s only dreams
Gone awry in wanting. Just fragmented songs of lore
Lost in fears of red-eyed horses. Never what it seems,
She’s a merrow running off to the shore.
