Gemini - Poem

Destined to be an enigma

always split between two worlds

Two sides of the same coin

love and madness swirled

You came in and calmed my soul

a bond that surprised more then you know

Feels like I’ve known you

another day from a long time ago

Took my hand

smoothed my edges with your voice

Unplanned

shut out all the noise

Always a duality

high and low

Spinning chaos in control

fast and slow

You are an ethereal light

beckoning all to draw near

Love in your own right

and still I fear

You chip away at my brick and mortar

through the Lath and Plaster

I’ve always been trouble and wonder

always a beautiful disaster

My darling friend

I’ve followed you down the rabbit hole

On a road I can’t comprehend

out the window with self-control

Life is not the destination

learning through the journey

trial by ice and fire

calm seas, and winds gusty

And still I stand before the world

Pollux and Castor

Along for the trip

a little girl, dancer

Take my hand, hold my heart

stay near as I timidly travel

Following, watchful eye on the north star

as the path along starts to unravel

Love me through my back and forth

help me hold on

Watch me see through child-like eyes

the beginning of a new dawn
