Opacity by Richard VinceWhen I talk to you, I feel
Uncomfortably transparent,
Even though I have no idea
Whether you really can
See through my words.
Perhaps their true meaning
Is obvious to me only
Because I cannot hide it
From myself.

From myself 'tis a good thing, that. (I know the feeling, too, that a friend - can they see what I mean?)
Sincerity is becoming so rare, I fear. Beautiful poem, Richard. Real.
