    "Safe"

    "Safe"

    I thought that it was good,
    and then that moment changed.
    I waited for the better,
    but better was too slow.
    I thought that maybe I could
    blend with something "strange",
    but never would I ever hide in it's shadow.
    And when I moved much nearer,
    you kept your hands clean;
    until I discovered
    how you adored the chase.
    Running to the mirror,
    beauty behind the screen,
    I could be your lover,but all else spoke disgrace.

    While you display your art,
    to the emptiest one in line,
    remember where you're going,
    and the truth I speak of.
    Fearful seas won't always part,
    water refuse the wine,
    but you can hide in knowing,
    you're still safe from my love...

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
