Description

I’m not a bad person,
I do feel what you feel.
It’s just unusual to unreel,
The emotions that I feel.

I want to show you I care,
But all I do is stare.
Wondering why your speaking bare,
Tears everywhere.

I don’t understand touch,
Why it’s necessary,
Are words not enough.

For me to ask how you are,
Is a blank question.
Cause you’ll respond,
With human convention.

Tell me what you want,
I’m no good with lies.
It’s more puzzling for me,
Than games of spies.

I magnify what your trying to tell,
But I’m in so deep,
I fall under a spell.
I can’t turn away,
My mind in another realm,
Trying to make sense of your show and tell.
