transparent


i see you so clearly.

you are everywhere to me.

and yet i am nowhere to you.

as if my skin is transparent and

you see right through me like a ghost.

 

what can i do to unblind you?

how can i make you see me

without you seeing me

the way that i see me?

 

how can i make you stay?
