...Confused... Poem by maddy macleod

You said to me,
'Never Again, I Am Sorry...'

Those words still linger in my mind.
The way you spoke them,
The way your face was when I saw you again.

It haunts me,
And I hurt to be in your presense,
I weep,
I crumble,

I die...

But today was different,
You smiled at me,
You talked to me,
You looked at me,
I was amazed.

I hugged a friend, and you tried to hug me,
I was confused,
Astonished.

I didn't move,
Or did I
Move away.

So frozen in that moment,
But not...

Do you care about me?
Do you see me as a human being, with feelings?
Do you even SEE me? ! ? !

I am confused by your reaction,
Your behavior,
You...

Do I make you shiver?
Do I make you weep?
Do I make you crumble every day?

So many questions,
And they all go...
