almost everything
at my center, at my core
is a place that reminisces
about things that were
and things that weren’t
and things that might have been.
and the questions it asks
are hard and troubled and
happy and giddy and
someday I might
just answer them all,
in my heart
and in my head and
maybe even on paper.
my dreams are no different
than anyone else’s
yet still, they are mine.
my head is round and
filled with thoughts,
thoughts like yours.
my heart beats and beats,
just like yours,
but whispers secrets
that only we can share.
and my eyes,
they look out and see you,
but they cannot look out
and see me.
