you don't pay attention to me
empathizes with someone else
but not me.
I am a witness.
I don't want to be.
You are my friend, stay by me.
your mouth start moving
different sounds I can distinguish.
I see rivers that form slowly.
I see eyes glowing.
I see tired genes
stick themselves until you blink.
the hurt, the pain, the guilt.
I take your hand and you squeeze.
I feel a paper in your palm,
unfold is a poetry
so I start to read:
*I enjoy you like a rainy day
whatever you do, I become delightful.
I'm so glad that I have you.
I'm glad that you smile and touch me
I'm glad that you read and walk with me
and I am glad you show me how you feel.
It was for him, you say to me.
you seem lost, I will not leave.
