My Words

a poem

You don’t know me

Yet here you can see

All the intricate, vulnerable pieces of me.

You don’t know me

Yet here you can feel

The swirling and twirling of my subconscious reel.

You don’t know me

Yet here you can hear

My ears as they ring full of hopes and new fears.

You don’t know me

So why do you crave

These piles of my words strewn all over your page?

You don’t know me

But what if it’s true

In this stranger, you see a reflection of you?
