Waiting to understand (Free verse) by Cha no Onna
How do you love someone
Who doesn't know what love is
Who can't see herself with your eyes
Who becomes only a cold, empty room?
You told me that you love the truth of me
Not in so many words, but that was
The meaning I found. And still I,
Quiet as a pilot light,
Wait to understand.
Through yesterdays I think I grieved for myself.
It hurt, knowing suddenly that there was no love
Here in my heart, which holds you and him
And so many others,
For me.
