Finding Percy

(To my dear friend RQ: I stole your expression! Full credit to you for Percy; and in return, this one's for you)
Finding a person who can just be
A person
When they are with you
is not easy -
Someone who spills sauce on their shirt
At dinner, someone who drops
Their keys and a text in the clumsy spaces
And corners of silence, or loneliness;
The someone who wears their identity
On their sleeve, proud to be
Themselves.
Finding these persons
Is not always easy;
Weeks may go by,
Or months -
Before you can find a someone
Happy to just to be.
I find
It's easier to find a someone true
When you are truly a someone
Too.
