Elusive inner presence, other me

 Elusive inner presence, other me,
Those bubbles on the water surface tell
Of life we cannot speak about nor see

We have many layers, currents pulled
Dynamic, swaying, living, dark unquelled.
Elusive inner presence, other me.

The philosophers like Langer all agree
A symbol is as deep as any well.
With life we barely speak about or see

A mermaid’s tail may flicker from the sea
The rhythm of waves our senses charmed, compelled
Elusive inner presence, other me.

Humanity is  called a living tree
If one leaf falls there is no plangent bell
For what we cannot speak about nor see

A coat embroidered three dimensionally
Will seize our eye and heart and soul as well
Elusive inner presence, other me.

The inner one must live in privacy,
Betrayed by none in marvelled secrecy.
Elusive inner presence, other me,
Open my blind eye,oh let me see.
