Find me
where the light touches the horizon with vibrant blends of color
But not
where the darkness came first.Find me
on the rim of a glass
you drink your lies from
But not
where the water touched your lips.Find me
on the edge of my seat
watching my life in a movie
But not
on the projected screenFind me
without a mask and
without any words
Instead of
finding me in a crowd
and showing white teeth.Find me
And I'll show you
The person
You meant to know.
And not
The person
You knew
Was lost.
