I don't think its fair
the way you
look at me.
Because by the time
you've turned the other way,
my heart starts aching
as if it just took a beating
from a wild tiger
that hadn't eaten
in weeks
& when I look at you,
it's as if my eyes
haven't seen sunlight
in years.
And while my nerves
have been shaken
out of my body
& onto the floor,
you...
You seem to be
perfectly
fine.
