From the corner of my eye
Feeling danger climb my spine
I liked the way God had arranged
the sun had colored skin
Innocent glances pulled my eyes back
known from another life
I kept trying
Afraid of saying too much
Divinity for a fool
Became a mystery
Mystery filled the space
But knowing should have been.
Couldn't bring you in
I am the imposter.
The fumbler
feeling may die
fantasy replaying week after week.
Eventually the feeling became strange,
Avoidance and ignoring
Heart beats smoother
when they once felt real.
Sometimes wonder
