Two mythologically startled

Mythologies

Down tribal tunnels
Distant lands
Exploring unknown
Timid stand
Counting blessings
Distant lands
Crying panes
Shards of selves
Justification
For what can not be
Rationally explained
Asking questions
What is belief
What is core.

Startled

You
You're honest enough
You're also secretive enough
I don't know where to place you
I love and hate you.
You don't tell an outright lie
Sometimes you tell the TMI truth
And I can feel my body shake
For I wonder
What TMI truth I've told you...
I wish I could remember
My mind a wave of memories
I look up
You're startled
I'm sorry...
What was your name?
