~Listen~ (2-29-04)

Listen to me,

I’m not a fly on the wall.

You can see me, plainly.

I might not be tall,

But I feel just so.

You give me a smile and you’ll see me glow

Like a face starin’ back in the tile.

If you just look at me

And see what you see,

Because forever I will be

In your grasp, on bended kness.

Task after task, I hope you see me.

And see all that I can be.

I have my days, when I feel erased.

Out of the place, out I’ve been chased.

And no I don’t know

Where I will go

The next time you come around.
