    In the Middle...

    "...I'm in the middle of you..."
    I heard her voice deep in my ears
    Stepping forward and beyond my fears
    Her dark form appears in my mind
    Night after night in rhyme after rhyme
    "... can't say for true, if she hears me too..."
    Skating day on sheets of ice
    following lines on a grid penned twice
    flowing hair just beyond my reach
    I push the ink to learn her speak
    "... it's you..."
    "...I saw the note you left in truth..."
    Typed into light in the open air
    Quite visits let me know she's tHere
    Walking soft on sheets of grass
    curious about 'You',
    in the looking glass.
    "... I'll come find you..."
    Watch the duck in the tales of cat
    Swimming by so nonchalant
    Koi in the reeds are gradient
    Shadow in the trees are radiant
    And in the rabbits hole, she sat silent
    I watched her scan the fire I made
    Critical eye in the flaming shade
    Pans the 'who' in the Daja Vu,
    She penned to me once...
    "...I'm in the middle of you..."
    "...I'm in the middle of you..."
    I heard her voice deep in my ears
    Stepping forward and beyond my fears
    Her dark form appears in my mind
    Night after night in rhyme after rhyme
    "... can't say for true, if she hears me too..."
    Skating day on sheets of ice

    "... it's you..."
    "...I saw the note you left in truth..."
    Typed into light in the open air
    Quite visits let me know she's tHere
    Walking soft on blades of grass
    curious about 'You',
    in the looking glass.
    "... I'll come find you..."
    Watch the duck in the tales of cat
    Swimming by so nonchalant
    Koi in the reeds are gradient
    Shadow in the trees are radiant
    And in the rabbits hole, she sat silent
    I watched her scan the fire I made
    Critical eye in the flaming shade
    Pans the 'who' in the Daja Vu,
    She penned to me once...
    "...I'm the center of you..."
    "...I'm in the middle of you..."
    I heard her voice deep in my ears
    Stepping forward and beyond my fears
    Her dark form appears in my mind
    Night after night in rhyme after rhyme

    I understand this as a look into one's self. In that light it is delightful - but if I am wrong, it is still delightful.

    Very very interesting write that is somewhat cryptic but well written

    Poetry is what gets lost in translation.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
