I don't think we are meant to be alone. We are to be in pairs; to have someone to lean on and trust in. This poem describes two people coming together for the first time and learning to give and to take...
(This was my first attempt at a poem with a chiastic structure. Every concept repeats itself: the first is last, the second is second to last, etc...)
Borrow You
I am going to borrow you
Rest my head upon your shoulder
Weave our hands together
Smile in your eyes
Feel you breathe
In rhythm
As I breathe
Trust in my eyes
Weave our dreams together
Rest your heart upon my shoulder
Borrow me
