Closed my eyes to see
Broad daylight, which God ordained
That mystified me
What if when I die
The mystery of your soul
Is unsolved by mine
Of intuition
Be most confident of this
You know what you know
Blond BMX brat
I wrote him a mystery
The first boy I went crazy for
I don’t know what for
Day after day did I watch
From my window
My letter in his hands
I wonder what I said
Perhaps it was just my gesture
Each day he pedaled faster
I heard him finally take a guess
He had hope in his voice, or disbelief
Actual
Virtual
Premonition
Hope
Discerning you
Always
A mystery
They think
Lost in the seconds
For there is a mystery
With whom I must dance
This primal laughter
This quiet cry
Comes
From the peaceful place
That knows you know me
Whether you know it
Is my mystery
Thank you
