My life as a Chameleon

My life as a Chameleon

A Poem by icaros13

"
Being a Chameleon
can be quite frustrating.
You can't get a good look
at who you are.
I once asked a tree
in whom I was lounging
what I looked like.
He said, "I hear your voice
but I can't see
you.
You must look
just like me."
It was the same
everywhere I went.
I was a disembodied
voice.
Until I met her.
Another Chameleon.
Naturally we hugged.
That day I learned,
when two Chameleons
come together,
it's their true selves
that they see.

takes one to truly know one kind of thing it seems? I love the theme of this, finding like kind, someone who can understand you like no one else can. Its comforting...and one feels less alone.

For we have thought the larger thoughts And gone the shorter way. And we have danced to devil's tunes, Shivering home to pray; To serve one master in the night, Another in the day. ..I do love.. more..
