Where do you hide
So far away from reality?
I look into your eyes and see
The emptyness you float beneath.
So close and yet so distant,
Dancing in the shallows until
I reach for you. But at that point
You are fathoms beyond my grasp.

I like how this could apply to oneself or to another. We often lose ourselves or others into the depths the psyche. Well done.
