Read Me

Can you read the unwritten lines as they seep my skin?

Lingering frantically within

Can you comprehend the verbal silence before they disperse from my pen?

Please allow me to moment to lend

The faults, the fear, the hurt, the torture, the faith, the hope

Of my inner most plies

Take here my cries of ties night and night

As long as tomorrow's strength tries to get by

Read the changes I’ve been going through….

To find my self here…..at this point…..in this place

Within myself

Memorize me like your most favorite movie

For you to adequately soothe me

Repeat to me every line

Incline

With passion to understand the essence of mine

And then allow me to get through

Grant me the ability for you and I to intertwine

Slow dance or prance in reality

Because actually,

Without flipping the pages

Touching the words

The image is a fallacy

Of diluted expectations

Read me

With apprehension

Time

After time
