Crossroads (4/8/15)

To this world you gave light,

and to the world it shown so bright,

except on to you, according to you,

you-your oblivious, pitious self.

How can a sleeve threaded by your hostility

be the same sleeve that bears a heart?

This love, not of star crossed lovers, but

of blood cannot be chosen by request;

perhaps in different parallels we rest

in separate homes gazing at a midnight sky

through windows in which yours reflects

the being I'd have not crossed paths with

had it been my choice; you'd not be my pith.
