Have
I looked you in the eyes before?
You
seem familiar.
Like
a memory
I
never quite processed
Like
a life
that
I could possibly live
Like
a story
that
remained floating
through
time
its
pages scattered
incomplete
before my eyes.
That
smile
is
knowing
its
laughter is hidden deep in my dreams
wisping
through sleep and wake
whispers
reminders in my ear
Of
vague,
but
vivid scenes…
Déjà vu ignited
and
it may all be a lie
it
bothers me that I can’t confirm it
but
either way you
have
an authenticity
that
I could never deny.
Have
I looked you in the eyes before?
If
I never told you
it
was quite my pleasure
your
tenacity reminded me
of
what I felt
when
I saw a piano
for
the first time
at
age five and a quarter
I
knew you were my forever
never
thought
that
pupils
could
ever be shackles
that
limited my movement
but
I was stuck
to
the tiles
rendered
helpless
your
allure
overwhelming.
We’ve
never
quite
fully greeted each other
yet
it seems
I
reintroduce myself
every
time
to
this nostalgia
of
what I’ve lived
through
you but not really…
I
don’t usually chase
but
for you …I just might
Maybe
I’ve already started
you’ve
become
a
certainty,
a
source of my inner light
You
are the
“not
just yet’s”
that
I’ve begun to need
You’ve
defined how
uncanny
it is when life
comes
full circle
in
a way you’d never believe
That
smile though…
.Shining.
Not one I could forget
So
tell me
Come
on now…
really
Have
we ever met?
