Answer my... Hope

By Nail Bunny

Answer my questions.
If you must, tell me lies
bring out the scales to cover my eyes
Speak to me.

Answer my calls
put me off if you must
spurn me as an unwanted object of lust
listen to me

Answer my addresses.
pretend that you care
do whatever it takes, get me out of your hair
acknowledge me

Answer my pleas
just glance my way
I'll gladly cling to any word you say
notice me.

I have been faithful,
unswercing and true.
Pledged to no other,
yet abandoned by you.

*Author's note: Contrary to popular belief,
this was not written to an ex-girlfriend.

    This just refused to let me go, that your holding onto something that aint' really there, to begin with this was just amazing

    Christ Jake, I can actually sit here and read your poetry and *gasp* not loose interest like I do with so many other people. Well done. I like it a lot a lot.
