Someone Like Me {Poetry}

Epiphany

I never realized

        That you -

A small fracture in time -

        Stood at

The forefront of my mind

        Until January.

I have known you since September,

        And yet never knew

                Your name.

I understand that your gaze shifts

        Over the seasons,

And that perhaps it even drifts.

        But do acknowledge

    That my sight holds firm.
