Acceptance of Particular

You definitely see me

In your line of sight

My shy eyes look for contact

with your wandering ones.

 

You cannot hear my voice reach

the depth of your ear drums

it's soft I know

but I won't speak louder.

 

I can't

I think too hard

About what to say

how to say it

Simplicity wreaks my mind.

 

I wait

My patience grows thin

I shrink

I won't grow back

because of you.

 

I want to

I'll try

try to be better for you

Show you

Will you please accept me?
