-The image of you

I harbor, is not the you

I have yet to meet,

or the you I’ve already

seen in a faded photograph

it is an image

constructed of your words

the ideas that hold them in place

the ideas which created

the ideas which you express

it is an idea

sewn together by words

sewn onto an idea I had previously

which had little to do with you

but everything to do with an image

So the image I have of you

is less your image and more

ideas and words which fit

previous daydreams about

ideas and words
