Of Me

You did a good job
this time
there is no external evidence
never is

My insides, however
well, they wimper
a different story

I feel a hollowed cavern
gut and heart schrapnel
weighs heavy
in my chest

heaves
involuntarily

with after weep

varying levels
of stabbing ache

When I replay
your words
your actions

i wince
in disbelief


SO

just what is it you want from me


(other than)


to see me naked

(artfully of course)

from afar


so
then

what ?



sorry.


i need
real moments



in
real
time.
