Quidam's View

For No One

by Colleen Barry
Written 09-16-08

For no one;

For no one but me:

A face in the sea

Of one thousand.

 

And all I can see

Is that I’m lost in this sea;

Lost in a sea of one thousand.

 

I’ll call out for aid

(Without which, I’ll fade)

Fade to this sea of one thousand.

 

But without me they’d be

No one,

They’d see…

Without me,

One short of one thousand.
