For Me

I sit watching you watch me.

With flowers in your hair it feels like you’re everywhere.

I want you to come out and play.

Is this the day?

Like everyone I want you to want me for me, not for who I pretend to be.

Your smile is like the moon, bright as can be but it’s like you’re in a cocoon.

Your eyes are like a book, easy to read but with the most important page ripped out.

I hope you never doubt that what we almost had would have been great.
