one day, I thought I saw
you--back in life, though
not in mine
I followed you through
streets--you had errands
but no home
now I make a boat for you
clean it of sadness and
stock it with food
lay in strong thoughts
and soft words and
welcome shores
if there is a way, maybe
this is it, you'll lift like
a tide, finding love
until it sets me free too
so I too can live--
as I already do

Is it a shape poem? The prow of a boat?
