Thorny Poetry - 4. Truth
Written in response to someone who wrote me poetry.
It’s not about
me
what I am
not really
It’s about
how you see me
what you need me to be
what I am to you
And it’s still true
Because
isn’t that what all relationships are?
Are we not all
each other’s blank canvases
onto which we project each other?
Are we not all
each other’s mirrors
showing us what we can be?
Are we not all
each other’s truths?
Let me be your canvas
and your mirror
so you can project the world onto me
and I can reflect your light
the beauty of your words
back onto you
So I can be
what you need me to be
and show you how wonderful you are.
