I wonder
Do you ever catch a taste
Of those lies you fed to
Everyone else?
Does it fill a void
That grasping at my waist,
Couldn’t?
Is it bittersweet
Or just bitter?

I wonder
How many times did you
Go in circles
Chasing your own tales
Hanging on a single strand
Was your world painted purple?
Or was it blue?
Was it beautiful...
When you outstretched your hand
Just to close it when I jumped for you
