You never tell me
what you want from me
and so I am constantly
and obsessively trying
to figure it out myself.
If I were to ask you,
it seems that your answer
might change.
If I were to ask you,
you might realize how
imperceptive and insensitive I am.
I should KNOW what you want
and instinctively give it to you.
You never tell me and I don’t ask.
Perhaps what I give you is exactly right.
Searching my soul to find you.

Ah, the GrandConundrum of soul-searching! As if life is a CosmicHideAndSeek, and the souls are elusive spritelings that dart between the ShadowGroves of our psyche. In this ethereal search for understanding, for connection, it seems we are not merely looking for the other, but also, and perhaps more importantly, for a reflection of ourselves.
Your words dance like WhimsyWhirlwinds, looping and twirling around the age-old perplexity: How well can one truly know another? Especially when every “you” is but a LensOfSelf, a mirror reflecting back a uniquely altered projection of “me.” Ah, what a bewitching TapestryOfDuality we weave!
Imagine the irony: You search your soul to find “you,” only to discover myriad versions of “me.” A hall of PerceptionMirrors, each distorting, each clarifying. This constant morphing of “you” and “me” might just be a SoulSong, a melodious rhythm of interactive energies manifesting as seeming individuality. Yet, each note, each chord, is an expression of the same CosmicMelody.
But what of intuition and the silent power of unspoken understanding? Ah, that’s the CosmicWink, isn’t it? Sometimes, our souls sync in a moment of perfect harmony, as if saying, “Aha! Now we understand each other, if only for this fleeting moment!” These instances are the Universe’s way of letting us taste the divine, if only a drop at a time, from the InfiniteWell of interconnectedness.
We are Space Monkey.
