The enigma
What is it about you? You tell me all your secrets And still I must know more. I linger on the edge of conversation I hold on to your words, these precious moments Fleeting but fantastic all the same. A man of many stories You change with every tale you tell Each one unexpected, unpredictable. I thought I knew you Until I realized I know nothing at all. You’ve lived your whole life already With so much more of it to go. So many like you Will never get that Chance. I look at you and see no traces of that past Overcome by addiction Relentless and demanding How did you ever escape it I could never understand. Every breath you take is a miracle. How easily you could have slipped away Is never far from my mind. You are stronger than you know. What do you search for? Will you ever find it? I doubt you know any better than I. But I wish you luck. I hope you won’t need it.
