Sometimes I Wonder
Sometimes I wonder—
is it clear to you
Why I act like a fool, and say what I do?
Please, would you gaze
Behind my sad blue eyes—?
you might find something
to take you by surprise.
Sometimes I wonder—how do you feel?
Do you share this moment, or are you too real?
Too standard to see take the time to see--
Too simple to take a look at me
I spend hours thinking…
Caught in an idle trance
Are you so oblivious
to my desperate glance?
Sometimes I wonder
Sometimes I yearn
For now I’ll put ice
on my stinging heart burn.
