  • Summary

  • You with those sad eyes
    In the sallow light
    Backdropped by electric blue

    And me with the glass eye
    Recorder of moments
    Context only by supposition

    I could not ask you then
    What countenanced such sorrow
    Or was it just an unguarded moment

    Emotion apparent in an unintended gesture

    I am left only with guesses
    While you cannot even know
    Someone reflects on this moment

    From half a world away
