BECAUSE YOU ARE YOU

Folder: 
JOURNAL #34

as my day is ending

your day is beginning

and somewhere in between

we agree to meet

in the middle

for we both know there

is much nobility in struggle

and strife has its own courage

as we repeatedly wave this

flag of mutual example

over and over

these very mentioned conversations

inter woven with such attraction

preoccupied are my private thoughts

how they delightedly dance

around your favored image

you as well introduce yourself

as quite vulnerable to me

and this captures me so sweetly

surely you could never even

jokingly care to disagree

still,  perhaps you do not realize

how remarkable such glimpses are

of your lovely interior self

to me, you could not be half so

handsome physically

as you are from the mental

image I regularly  sketch of you

as we speak

in what ever the way we choose

for just as I thought

you said it too

its so simply because

my dear

you are you

and nothing else to me

matters

not culture

nor opinion

nor any outsiders view

and this once writ

I can not  undo..........................
