Wonder If I could see right through youreach the center of your soulI wonder what I'd find therewhat truths would I be shownand if I could get inside your headto dream the things you dreamI wonder if I'd hear my nameor only hear your screamsand if I could somehow read your thoughtsbefore they had been sharedI wonder what I'd find insideI wonder who lives there Copyright: Renee Seymour, The Shades Between, 2024 Image credit Luis Royo
