The me in I
I sometimes don’t like…
She admits too
freely… too easily
How lost we are
without you.
She pulls the
carpet from under
In her disclosure;
her insecurity.
Hush! I console her.
She sulks.
Embarrassment;
Fidgety hands…
She shows herself.
For long
had I thought
I was strong, without you.
Till the me inside,
Persona non grata
From the other strata
re-entered, unfettered!
