Existential Hopscotch

I see
I see You
You see,
see Me, too

We see,
You and Me
And agree
We see a tree

If You see
what I see
then what I see
is just for Me

I do not see
how You could be
if consistently
We both agree

It must be
successively
You personify
a part of me

If You see
differently,
but still agree
there is a tree

Accordingly,
explain to me
what exactly
that You see

Describe for me
painstakingly
complexities
of the tree

If I believe
and fathom thee,
it is simply
still a tree

Henceforth see,
You're still Me,
just going about it
differently

If You truly
see no tree
could You be,
perhaps, free?

You could see,
or not, maybe,
or think, really,
of how You aren't Me

But whether You be
a contingency
outside of Me,
a mystery

If I see,
and know I'm Me,
then one reality
there must be

Inevitably
and curiously
defined within
intimacy
