Blind

Gangly legs crossing spindly lives,
moments awkward in their demise,
Looking across through a wall of ice
Stunted words, nothing concise.

As you are

Shaved head
Eyes of brown,
Drawing in,
Seductive in laughter.
Artists stroke
Pouring soul onto paper
Mesmerising in detail.
Crinkling in corners
Smiles of innocence,
Hidden experiences showing.

Hidden glances undetected,
Wishing you could see.
Excuses visiting often
Wanting you to see.

Aimless arrorw

Arrows protruding,
Aimless shot
Pain of the far.
Reaching out
Cannot touch.

Gaps looming,
fingers reaching.
Only touching if he reaches back.
Uncertainty trembling.
If only, if only.
