Did You

A Poem by prikcab

did you hear me calling out to you
a whisper at first
growing to a scream
returning to a whisper

did you see my hand reaching out to you
maybe you could not see
in the darkness behind the tears
it was there

did you feel my heart beating for you
unlike the calm beats when you sat by my side
now anxious erratic thumps and pauses
you control the pace, it hasn't stopped
