All I ask for is

a second or two of your
time
just a moment so you can read these
lines

I sit around, alone in this room
longing to feel
something close to feelings
something close to remind me
I’m human
    …I think

well, I got a heartbeat
and this heart
beats
for you

and I got two eyes to see
and all these eyes
see
is you

it’s just two more seconds
hate to waste your time
I just wanted to show
here on these
lines
written by someone barely human
being read by your beautiful blue
eyes
even people that are barely human
need someone they can call
‘mine’
