Kithara
Published April 4, 2013 by rlmcdermottinside this lonely
landscape
of painted moons
and paper trees
I’m grateful
for the friendship
you’ve given me
you are a god
and I’m kithara
you play me
and I sing
a year ago
we met
or didn’t meet
beside a blossoming cherry tree
you turned your head and looked at me
and I saw everything I couldn’t be
but what I am is more than you can bear
the face of love
the face of death
a song without a singer
a wing without a bird
a poem written in the sand
we love
a different way than most
I let you go
you keep me close
we speak and never speak
we touch and never meet
who will ever love you quite like this
