For Whom Is Pictured

I’d like to know your depth
And what it is you’re feeling.
I’d like to know your thoughts
And what you think of me.

I’d like to see your eyes
And have them give you away.
I’d like to hear your sounds
And know if they were fake.

I’d like to hold your hand
And to feel it tremble.
I’d like to hold you close enough
That I could feel you crumble.

I’d like to smell your breath
And know the spark of its taste.
I’d like to fall asleep
Knowing you were still awake.

I’d like to know you at all,
The light will always flicker.
I’d like the light to steady
So I could see your picture.
