Lovelorn Poet in Western Massachusetts: Forgive Me

Forgive Me

Forgive Me
Missed Connections in Western Massachusetts

i thought i knew you
but it was only me.
the you that you truly are
is not the you i see.
my mind has formed your image
but you have already traveled on.
i want to see only you,
but i see you through me.
forgive me.

Note from the Missed Connections Chief Bottle Finder:

I’m taking a bit of a vacation through July 15 so I thought it would be fun to dig through the missed connections archive and re-publish some of the gems you may not have caught the first time around. I connected with this message because it talks about how we view others and form our opinions and emotions. We can never fully remove ourselves from this process and that is where many of the problems often lie.
