Little Parts (poem)
A dream I had this little part of you
The rest I guess I didn’t need to know
All those little things which didn’t show
Or found a place to hide just out of view
-
These reasons which add luster to your glow
Inherit darker places they weren’t due
And there to change the nature of their hue
Until uncertainty begins to grow
-
Who is this stranger which I never met
Where is the one I never knew at all
You’re not the one which I have come to see
-
Yet once I drifted past my last regret
And put asunder old familiar wall
The stranger I was looking at was me
