poem

 True Love

Do we truly love only those 

Who perceive us as we wish to be seen?

Is love at bottom a boundless narcissism?

A nystagmic racket

A wallet with secret compartments

I bought after watching an ad

Narrated by a man with an English accent 

She sees me seeing her as the one who sees me

As I always wanted to be

Seen. Seeing her as the one 

She always wanted to be seen being

Both of us believing
