Mirrors, Eyes

Wandering waves manifest an image
rendered as unreachable
This is the first time I don’t see you
I see me
dubiousnesses timidities
catoptrics

Even as you reach for me
skeptic speculations –
I feel my heart thumping
We said
expectations are disappointments unhatched
How could this not hold true now –
make mirages

of implicit simplicities
So lost in reflections
that while I feel your eyes open
taking in my image
Dare I stare in?
