A CERTAIN STARE

  A CERTAIN STARE They say I have this certain stare Looking straight into somewhere Enigmatic Disconcerting Nothing special Just flirting With my mystery Trying to break through Trying to see The reason for my humanity On the edge of a virtual reality Knowing yet not knowing Wondering I’ve seen that look many times before In another’s moments of clarity As she looked straight into me What is it that she wanted to say I don’t know I stare the same way

But tell me now

Who know me

What s it that you  see

you see my naked soul, I am

you see my naked soul, I am not ashamed. ~A "We have to try to get rid of the notion of time. And when you have an intense contact of love with nature or another human being, like a spark, then you understand that there is no time and that everything is eternal." Paulo Coelho

I only found one nit-picky correction: 'What s it that you see' -> what is X-ray vision may not be all it's cracked up to be. All the same, awesome write. ~Jess K. ---------------------------------------------------- -"You can be a dreamer, you can be your dreams come true.
