I hope to have some clue soon,
as you do,
as to who it is
I’m looking at
at this moment.
Apparition, I
can’t be sure if
you or I
are all there.
I know what I’ve seen,
meaning I know nothing
for certain.
I wish not to foment doubts,
but when are we not fibbing
to ourselves about something.
Gone in an instant.
Hollow
as the promises I
made to myself.
Walk right through the walls
I’ve built,
made of finely chiseled,
yet false,
precepts.
Am I here for a good reason?
Or was there something
I just couldn’t accept?
