You looked at me

You looked at me

With your unfeeling eyes

And I longed to make emotion appear,

Anger,

Fear

Amusement,

Anything at all

Just so long as you

Did not stare passively at me

Now there is feeling

In your eyes,

The anger piercing my heart

Like a thousand little blades

And I feel like crying

Feel like dying,

Shrivelling up, and

Disappearing into the night.
