I don’t think the lady who asked for this poem was quite prepared for it. I really like how this turned out.

the sun sees my body            my physical form          my normal

my day to day             my staring at the see          my glee

my       coffee coloured marks             my red wine lips              my hips of life

the moon sess

my soul

my inner light

and darkness

all the things i try to be

all the things i succeed at being

all the things i fail at being

all of who i am

my       staring at the sea     inside

the moon sees

 

in daylight and moonlight           i am seen

i am       i will be         i have been

and i am seen
