Found my way


Actually, maybe,
he was there…
always.

He never sought,
never wavered, never altered
never pointed the pin from the peculiar
to perpendicular
never adjusted his view to the birds

or planes

or thin black dots that meandered to the
horizon;
         but kept his safely buttoned,
unchanging eyes fixed
on me
as I wavered,
as I altered
and found my way home.

    Damn those cursed eyes that follow your every move, they know your every whisper even the ones you only utter in the dark.

    Sometimes we love the adoration at times well we seek to be invisible, yet perhaps I am looking at the world through my dark violet glasses and this poem is not about a stalker but perhaps a fervent lover.

    Hell this might just be about bird watching, whom am I to know what is and what is not to be found in the lines of a fellow poet.

    I loved this ... for me it brought to mind the ever faithful teddy bear, sitting at the bedside.

    I really enjoyed the sentiment created.

    Thank you
