Are You Talking to Me?


...I feel nothing from you
nothing from your look 
nothing from your touch
but I think I heard in a song once 
that “nothing ain’t nothing, if it ain’t free”. 
and God damn it lady, I’ve spent a fortune on you.

so then there’s something 
I mean we have something right? 
It’s may not be crystal clear 
but I am sure 
if we discuss it long enough
we’ll figure out what it is 

but conversation for you 
is always an internal battle 
you’re so worried about 
not being smart enough 
that you sound like an idiot 
I promise
this time 
I’ll sit
smile 
and listen 
Please 
tell me your side

your silence is your only sentence
my sentence is 
the two years I have spent battling this silence 
baby, I don’t know what to say 
you sit here 
on the chair in the corner 
with your dark hair draped over one shoulder 
That’s so sexy…
I am having a hard time thinking 
but I guess I should focus. 
so focus I will 
my attention is yours.

Hmm, 
so silence 
with just a hint of whimper 
is your speech. 
Well, that it is hard
is a hard argument to dispute
is it not? 

It’s “hardness” matches the looks you are flashing me 
But again
it’s not a competition
it’s a conversation

scratch that it’s a monologue.
