Did you know?
July 30, 2009
Look at me
Please
Look at me
A nibble of a glance
An abrupt recognition
Look
I’m here!
Can’t you see
Your face intrudes my slumber
Did you know!?
You provoke a warm rising vehemence
Rambling through
Finding its release where I least aspire,
My eyes
Did you know!?
I’m drowning in despair
Did you know!?
I still care, I still care
Did you know!?
I’m breaking, I’m breaking!
Did you know!?
As you stand there with your illuminating smile
I sit here molding into anguish
Did you know!?
Our memories carouse me
They choke me!
Did you know?
no,
you don’t
you don’t know.
