YOU

You could be a wandering soul,

A blood thirsty vampire….

Or an angel in disguise

You could be a mirage

Or the first drop of rain

In the dry desert sands

I do not know
And I may never know…                        

                              

          You could be a lullaby

Or a shrill cry at night

A stroke of love

Or a stab of pain

I do not know

And I may never know…

You could be the sweetest dream

Or the worst nightmare

The dewdrop of the morn

Or a stinking drop of blood

I do not know

And I may never know…

You could be Everything,

Anything, Nothing.

Thank God…

He never gave me

The mind’s eye

To see you as you are.

I can draw you, paint you

As I like

I can shape you, mould you

As I like

I can live with the ‘YOU’ I created

I do not know

And I may never know…
