NARDIS
PATRICIA BARBER
Hopelessly smitten and strangely driven
To stop and stare and wonder
How have I been here before?
And why do I want more and more?
Each into the other
This plainly forbidden fruit that has given
Form to what was private bliss
Upon reflection I find
I'm losing myself and my mind
Can I woo her through the looking glass
This refraction of light I see?
In the pool face to face we match
Like ghosts, like family, like angels
Translucent and in-between
I'm falling in love with her
Brazenly object, willingly subject
As sunlight through the moon
Like a soliloquy or two
Forever as one, me and you
