“Unlocking the Secrets of ‘Thee & Me’: Paul Tristram’s Poetic Journey Through Love and Longing”
In the realm of poetry, where words dance and emotions intertwine, it’s often said that no two souls are crafted from the same mold. Each of us carries our scars and our signs of life, unique like a fingerprint. This exquisite piece takes us into the delicate territory of individuality and connection. As we traverse the lines, we’re invited to contemplate how our distinct experiences shape the bonds we forge. Imagine a campfire under a starlit sky, where the warmth of shared laughter stems from our unique tales—your compassion mingling with my empathy like midnight campfire beer and cigarettes. Isn’t it fascinating how our differences can be the very threads that strengthen our connections? Dive in and let the poetry provoke thought about how we stand distinct yet united.

We are not made from the same mould.
Our scars and tattoos do not match up…
only our hands,
clasped determinedly against the word,
by our ‘Stronger Together’ sides.
Your compassion and my empathy
go together
like midnight campfire beer and cigarettes.
… and it’s hard not to notice
that the forest wind
always drives around
yet, never between us.
I have a Tinker’s mandolin for a heart
whilst the depth of the entire ocean
is eclipsed by your logical mind.
You are the safety catch
to my double-barrelled emotions.
I am the twilight lightning
which cracks and ignites
the touch paper
of your sweet, passionate abandonment.
