do not read

do not read

my poems

if you will not

read me.

i jumped

from a bridge

and woke up

in the hospital.

apparently

the "DNR"

i wrote

in marker

on my chest

had washed away.

or maybe

they had washed

it away.

i left a note

and it said

"do not read"

as if

anyone

could ever

resist such

an invitation.

and all i wrote

inside was:

"what did

i tell you?"

["i love you."

that is what

i told you.]
