Ode to a Nemesis Unfound


I’ll come to know you as I know

That every down defines an up

Each yes a no to make it so

 

So you are just as real to me

As all the love and joy I find

In who I want to be

 

You are a nadir so profound so far

below absorbing light

Like some black hole were I a star

 

And I regrip my stake and pick away

At finding you while seeking me

And knowing us as night and day
