Overdue Introductions

Well, here's another one of those poems that is probably a bit convoluted in its thought process, but I think I mean what I'm saying. Unless you dislike what it says, then you're just reading it wrong.

You don’t know me,

know who I truly

am, or I hope

you don’t,

because I don’t,

and I would hate

to have to ask you

to make an introduction,

that would be so awkward;

“Will, I’d like you to meet

yourself, this is long

overdue.”

Perhaps, though, this

is for the best.

You seem to know

my best and worst,

which is more

than I can claim,

so mediate that meeting,

and maybe then I

can be a man, whole,

once more.
