Do you hear me?
I hardly ever do.
I’m trying to strain and move
To your humming.
I’ve had enough
Of pretence and admiration.
Do you hear me?
I come to apologize
Surrender to your
Wit and charm,
I have yet that seed
You handed to me…
Once.
I hold it still and
Feel its vines
Tighten around me.
Do you hear me
As I struggle for breath?
You hardly ever do.
I heard someone tell
The little bird your secrets.
I see you…
Inside out.
Bare, empty.
I still want you to have me.
Do you hear me?
I need you to do so tonight.
I think something inside me
Just shattered
Hear me…
I come for redemption…
Selfish as ever
Needy, grovelling
I come.
Hungry for this burn
I come.
Hear me… hear me.
Speak.
I know you never forgot
How I left ....
I ran… I was afraid.
.. .when the storm clouds
Broke.
