I know you’re there.
I can sense your presence.
Or is it my imagination–
I can sense your presence.
Or is it my imagination–
An echo of a memory
Not quite manifested
Obscured by my reasoning your existence?
Have I invoked you in some way in thinking of you?
Are these thoughts my own?
Have you placed them there to reassure me–
I’m not alone?
Nice job.
