| The Heart Will Die As Well |
You...
are standing too close to me.
like a tomcat
pissing on the steps-
here's news-
this is not your territory,
and I don't recall
inviting you
to stand so close to me.
you...
speaking like I'll turn to you
and say 'hey, thanks!
I wasn't listening to them
anyway - I think I'd only
like to talk to you today...'
and here's something-
I see past your words-
I see the motive behind
all of this - and I'm afraid
you'll never go
until I've thrown
my clenched fists at your face...
and then you'll leave...
trailing in your wake
an awkward silence
and the feeling
that I'll never quite escape. |
