Why? Why?
I’ve got my-
Got my mind open.
Still, I’m guarded,
Redefined,
No heart showing.
No more.

Why? Why?
If this was love for you
What made me flee?
our heart fell apart,
crumbled to dust-
Over your friend.

Why? Why?
That girl-
Your BFF’s a liar,
Got me looking over shoulders,
Patting down for wires.
Milky brown gaze,
Its warmth soothing-
But doubt’s shadow,
Creeping close.


Why? Why?
Know what’s right, you.
Know I’m right.
Here.

With my mind open.
