Do not look at me like that. With those eyes that see only what is shone to you. And you accept all of it. No questions asked. No logic, no reason to seek. No. I am not just an object you can look at. Do not look at me like that. With the judgment of their thoughts That you so shamelessly replicate in your feeble, feeble mind. No originality. You bore me in your dullness. No. I am not who you think I am. Do not look at me like that. With ears filled with their whispers. I can hear them too, you know. You're not very discreet. No. I am not defined by the stories they say. I am not an open book, Or a single shade, Or a monotone. I feel nothing for their interests. I am not alive in their ballads of woe. *I am alive in myself. I am the abstract, I am the obtuse.* My colors, range to infinity. My stories have happy sad tormenting everafters. I do not care for their hollow affection or their false ratification. I am unattached and I breathe fire-- *in. out.* I'm ablaze in my little place of ease. Even alone, I have found my love... She was there along. Residing in me, It was always-- me. I am myself. That is enough.

I am myself...
I try to forget you Yet your name Keeps propping up Like blooming darkness In my feeble mind Upon my pillow covers Under my sheets Looming to draw me in Weakened by your absence I’m convincing myself You’ll be back My evening kisses & morning lust
