on the subject of-...

looking through that lens

so focused on one single part
you miss out on the wonder that is revealed
 
I can't help the question from raising up
what is it about you
that is all-too-ready to see the worst
 
whatever you think of me…
that's your problem
 
trying to be good, so good
I wish I could offer some advice,
or help
but what you think of me
 - it isn't really my business 
I don't know how to solve your issue
 
you think I take advantage 
you, literally, want me to pay
loud, your voice echoes out
it reaches more ears then intended
even my own
 
how nice my, your, ours, everybody's life would be
if you could bring your troubles directly to me
since after all, they are about me
how easily would it be solved
 
my behaviour results in
the very opposite of my desires
somehow I create mystery and intrigue
out of the parts of myself that most bore me
 
whatever you think of me…
that's your own problem
 
 
…for me…
that just leads to an impulse to escape

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
