I Can Never See You

I can never see you.

The best I can do is to
to see exactly what you are not...

make up the rest
fill in the blanks
with stories, commitments, words.

If I could actually see you I fear I would go blind,
loose my sight to light, forever, for Nothing.

Likewise, when you get a peek at what burns
beneath the flesh and bones of me to see,
you would again know Nothing.

Dare we let go to know this now?
