For W.

What do you want to hear

That fear may always transcend

That somehow I may be the villain in everybody’s story

That invisible strings have always held me back

That seclusion is comfort

That I don’t have to be

For I am already

That Walls don’t ask

And books have given

Without asking in return

I’m not that girl

I won’t ever ask

But somehow I will hope

That in my silence you will hear

That If I hold back, I want more

If I avoid, look for me

If I ask for space

Let me at least feel your touch

For whatever is unsaid is to be deciphered

But that’s hard work nobody wants to sign on

And you will never know I was looking

Vacant spaces are my imaginary friends

We held it together

In filled rooms smiling with friends

I am a void, you should avoid

For even my existence is a mystery to me

I am glad you asked, but you shouldn’t have

I should have let you believe you knew

For we are worlds, with each his gravitational pull
