How rare to know another.
How rare to know another
A gift it is indeed
Beyond these burdened bodies
Behind vain and human need
Besides vague formalities
That are cast upon our hearts
Past blundered, sleepless souls
Where childhood departs
The cloud of thoughts unshared
A tug of hope ignored
Where the spirit dwells true and bare
And the heart dances it's accord
The sight that never seen
The truth never felt
Going through both life and dream
To never meet or say farewell

Nice rhyming...
I am primarily a rhymer and so naturally gravitate towards those that are too. First line of the last stanza: "The sight [that's] never seen". Good job! Good to see new poets coming in that can write good rhyme. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your stuff! ~ Geezer.
