Unity

[indeliblink]

I've thought of "us"
Dark, dawn and dusk
From all my points of view
I've pondered long
What might be wrong
With how I'm seeing you.
Until right now
I've not known how
To cherish, hard and deep
The you I see --
-- distinct from me --
Yet equally complete.
It's you I seek,
But when you speak
You're so misunderstood.
Your deepest cares
Are lost somewhere
Between our souls. Misheard.
So how to find
My peace of mind?
Our differences undo me!
Perhaps, through this:
The humbleness
To view myself more truly.
I'm not the best.
It brings no rest
To think I shine more brightly.
I'd rather pause
And stand in awe
Of how your ways delight me.
Yes, you're unique.
The words you speak
Seem foreign. Strange. Absurd .
But that will end!
Oh, teach me, friend!
You're perfect. Valued. Heard.
