Do-si-do

A 2020 poem

We pass each other by

Always slightly missing the point

Back to back

A sadness stares into the distance

Rewind

Determined to try again

Face to face

Who do I see in you?

Who do you see in me?

I look to the sky

But he is not there

I am not looking high enough

My little brain cannot quite grasp

“Big” is as good as my searching gets

A sadness, a sacrifice I make

To no avail

I will close my eyes and kneel

And wait

Impatient, I stand and wrestle

Until you bless me
