The Two Hundred Seventh, July 25, 2007

I close my eyes
I see you

I cover my ears
I hear you

I close my mind
I sense you

I hide my heart
I feel you

you are with me
always here

I do not understand
I just know

You are not outsider
you are me

  1. This has a haunting quality to it. Within it lies both pain and pleasure. The two lines...so simple...is a treat.

  2. People forget or choose not to remember that the only person you are with your entire life is yourself.... You should like that person and be comfortable with them.

  3. Very deep and very perspective of who we are. I really enjoy this poem cause its facing your self the truth and the truth is you can never hide from your self

    warm thoughts and hugs

  4. Very self-reflective. I agree there is a slightly haunting tone that brings out the internal struggle we all sometimes face ... the desire to escape ourselves ... or embrace ourselves. Nicely done.
