Do You?

Do you see me when you close your eyes
do you think of me when you are telling your lies

Do I cross your mind at all
or am I just a speck on the wall

Am I just a distraction
from your life, your pain, your dissatisfaction

Do you care that you're tearing me apart
that I'm the one sacrificing my heart

Do you think of my needs too
or is it only about you

The sensations, the touch, the pleasure
is this why I've sold my soul forever?

Reviews

[Ross Saunders]

I liked that you didn't use any question marks until the very end. It worked effectively at giving this more of an element where it parlayed a stream of consciousness element. Very powerful, very nicely done and excellent writing.

[Coyote Poetry]

A powerful poem that ask many good questions. Love had up and downs. I tell the young people. Go slow and easy. Life can peak and we have but one way to go. Ending leave the important question. Was it worth it? A excellent poem.
