Bonding by Traci MabatsYou like to play
the part of the enigma
you must feel more comfortable
behind the curtain of indifference
I wait on the other side
anticipating
disclosure at my fingertips
Please, feel free
to expose your
soft inner-lining
to me
I will neither harm
nor judge you
I only wish to observe
and perhaps
regain touch
with a part of me
that I seem to have lost

Posted by Ashok Sharda on 02/15/04 at 02:57 AM Ponderous. Seems to have emerged out of a calm and composed mind trying to see what is from the other side too.'I will neither harm nor judge you' speaks of this objective outlook in the back drop of the 'bonding' one feels so bound to. The purpose is to regain the 'touch', objectively and in the interest of the 'bonding' to become meaningful and alive. |

Posted by Kara Hayostek on 02/15/04 at 09:37 AM This is definately an interesting read, the lines "I will neither harm
nor judge you
I only wish to observe" really gets to me, everyone is always on the offesive and you never really get to observe... |
