to each other,
even after twenty years of marriage,
or a lifetime
of friendship,
we still
can't figure out
who someone really is.
sure, we know their habits,
how they like
their tea,
and toast,
their eggs over easy.
how they like to read
at night.
we know the sounds they
make
when they sleep,
the position they lie in
when the lights go out.
we know
where they like to walk
during the day,
which path
to take and
which bench to sit on
when circling
the lake,
but the truth of the matter is
is that we
have no clue
what they're all about,
we think we know them,
but it's often
a mistake.
