Description
No idea how you look:the colour of your eye
or the curve of your smile.
No idea how you sound:
the vibration of your voice
or the echo of your laugh.
No idea how you smell:
the fragrence of your clothes
or the scent of your skin.
I’m oblivious of your shell but I’ve seen what’s within:
Walking the winding paths you created,
- its stepstones made of words-
illuminated by imagination and shadowed by disgust,
I was led to dark corners,
housing crippled hopes,
turning into fears, covered with dust.
I kept my pace steady, though,
smiling at your attemps to scare me away,
knowing them to be directions to your hide
where
I found the most passionate soul,
living in a beautiful mind.

Yea, I can see a couple different meanings, which I think can be a good thing sometimes. It gives the words a greater reach.
I quite like it. I, too, like the way it's set up.
This line though:
"knowing them to be directions to your hide" I think there's a mistake here. Or something I'm really not getting.

Now I am confused too...what do u think is the mistake..semantically or grammar wise or?
...hmm them is referring to attempts to scare me away ..you know when people tell you not to go/touch/see something..that are usually the things that matter. So the more they try to keep you from it the more you know that you're on the right track.
pff not sure if thats any clearer to you now? I suck at explaining...

It's not the "them". It's the "to your hide" thing. Gramatically it's not making sense. Well, technically it can, but the meaning wouldn't make sense. To me anyway. Get it? I'm a horrid explainer too.
