“The Eyes Don’t Lie” by Vennie Kocsis

You are hiding behind a star,
and I cannot find you
through the maze of
constellations.
You are elusive.
I climb the clouds,
searching just to see
the eyes behind your mist.
What is this?
What is this place?
I have found myself among
the unknown, and
I don’t feel at home.
Come find me, lover, otherkin.
I am waning in the tide,
piece by piece I melt
into the cool swell.
If only I can evaporate,
I can return to the place
of my birth where
you wait to take me back
into the arms that
keep my soul safe from
the harm of humans.
