Beyond the Bend
Can you see the blurred lines glidin’ where the trees and roads once divided?
The creek’s trickling and blue birds sing,
yet, their edges melt into one horizon.
Weaving roots come undone
and I’m left all alone playing make-believe, and who is me
like jane doe, I’m on the run.
Can you see where the blurred lines run where I drift and merge to be—
what we are made “to be” while tomorrow waits
beyond the bend.
Or am I trapped staring at my identity through the stained glass room, far above
mistaking reflection for a boundary
far away from could be love.
