“Halves”
by Kristine Scholz of A Shelter From The Storm
You show me halves.
Half smiles.
Hints of what lies
half-buried
beneath the surface.
Half truths.
Half lies.
You torment me with
half an answer
and half hours
that
stretch
into eternities.
You hold back half your self.
You don’t share.
You don’t reveal.
You leave me in
half
shadow.
You are as elusive
as the dark side
of the moon.
There,
but not visible.
There,
but unknown.
There,
and half a world
away.
