Rich Kendall
I sometimes cannot see the line
Between the bubbles in the wine
Where you begin and where I end
Where what is real and what’s pretend
I look out from behind your eyes
And cannot tell the truth from lies
As memories I do not own
Like pictures carved in ancient stone
Come back to life inside of you
Yet seem to live inside me too
I disappear inside your skin
And feel the longing deep within
Yet not sure who it is that yearns
We step aside and each take turns
On pointed toes in pale moonlight
We pirouette throughout the night
Like shooting stars that never end
I make a wish it’s not pretend
