Here We Are 

“Here we are…”
every morning you see,
you breathe,
you move,
every day you speak,
you think,
you dream.
“Here we are again,”
you whisper to the mirror,
and you wonder
if another,
just one other
would stand the sight
of you
everyday, there to see,
the truth you show…
your hair in the morning,
your teeth before you brush,
the water steaming off your skin
as you step out of the shower
… someone who would
always be there for you,
to look into their eyes,
and still see
your reflection
just one other
so when you reach out to them,
that one,
would reach out to you
and touch palm to palm
fingers to fingers
dream to dream…
“Here we are as always,”
whispers the mirror in return,
and both smile.
every morning there is color,
there is air,
there is gravity,
everyday someone listens
someone is intrigued
someone awakens.
And,
“Here we are…”
