Missing Mortar

Like two live wires that touch,
there is a spark in your eyes
that ignites satisfaction
while you build your bridge 
that takes you to your other world.

May I follow?
Take me, hollow,
fill me with understanding 
as we reach the other side.

I know an answer is hidden
where the mortar belongs --

I would know it
of our connection was concrete.

  1. Nice poem that expresses exactly how you felt and probably still feel sometimes. It would be so wonderful if the way can be found to reverse autism!
