Know me, for me

[NeverMore]

could there be someone
who would stand beside me
when the hours seemed so long
if the dawn never came
never to change me
or find so much fault
not seeking the grey hairs
weathered in time
knowing the person
instead of the shell
life for anyone
could be cut short tomorrow
so how can they focus
on how long it has been
know me for me

[NeverMore]

love though brief
as time we see it
held for a monet
as a moment shall pass
once it was said
better to have loved
no truer the words
with each moment we share
for if a moment be all time
or just a fleeting day
each moment is worth living
each moment worth dying

Self-knowledge of one's self...and to find someone to undestand you is rare. Just going on with life in everyday ordinary things. A soulmate is rare...but sometimes you find someone is close and that is enough. I enjoyed the poem as it spoke to me.
