"unsearching" poems
*Your unsearching eyes, nonchalant ways
The distance between your being and everything
that is
everything simply is
and I can’t bear it
I’ve been searching since the day my eyes first opened
I search
and search
I search for things that may not exist
no
they most definitely do not exist
but then if I didn’t look thoroughly at every detail
I fear…
I simply fear
you, slipping away
you were never in my grip but I have this hold somehow
are you hiding something?
anything?
please hide something
I search for treasure
let me find you
and your deepest secret
and the beauty of an undiscovered mind
will be mine
and mine only
let me create a darkness in your heart
and let me surface it once again
I will be the one to bring you down
and to save you
be mine only
in my mind
and in yours*
