I Don't Know You
Poem about learning of someone
I Don't Know You
I don't know you,
but I want to,
You smile back to everything I say,
Look into me with your deep brown eyes,
showcasing presence, but absent,
a seeming less simplistic smile, shadowed by distance,
I cant figure you out,
I feel a dissonance between us,
but am intrigued to dissolve it,
you emote calm, cool and collected,
calculated with what you say,
an enigma of sorts,
with curious life views,
I can see a darkness in your eyes,
but a comforting kindness despite it,
your lips taste safe, and your arms envelope me,
but I don't know you,
I can feel you,
the anxiety in your movements,
your disconnect from the present,
you asking my thoughts,
because you cant feel me back,
but I don't know you,
You open up about your life,
as outlandish as some of it sounds,
you answer every question I ask,
never steering away,
but I am buying into someone,
someone, I know nothing about,
someone that is telling me about them,
without any proof this is them,
you are an enigma,
and I am curious,
but I'm buying in at face value,
Because I don't truly know you yet.
