should it serve you to see me
seated across from you
summon a memory that suits
and see me there
disparate lives may mingle
and move as one
lightning might live
in the mind of a man
rivers find cliffs
and mighty falls they make
but always return
to rivers again
find plurality of purpose
in your life of service
find your peace
and find your path
should it serve you to see me
settle for a copy
that's all you'll ever have

So I’m seeing a person who like just about everyone, can’t fully share themselves for whatever reason. Maybe they don’t know themselves. Maybe they do and they’re afraid it will scare people off.

Either way I think your brilliant,
Tim
