Your deep sea green eyes enchanted me
And your reticence attracted me
You were kind to me
But your thoughts of me
Were everything that I did not
Want you to think of me
Every being, whether big or small
It's underbelly is soft
Vulnerable
Although the exterior
Is guarded
Mine as well as yours
What you see is not me
What I see is not you
It is only once a creature has exposed itself
That it allows another to be close
You know me by my projection
And I know you by yours
But it deeply saddens me to know
That because you will not look for my interior
It is all we will ever see
