Drawing Blank
Location
For someone who always has something to say,
I am drawing blank.
Words, however plentiful in my mind,
become scarse as they leave my mouth.
I try to search for something to say to you,
Wanting to tell you how you are constantly on my mind,
but when I see you, my brain freezes,
similar to eating ice cream too fast, my mouth dry as desert
When you are away,
everything is fine. I can think about you a little more clearly.
I can fantasize about your lips,
eyes,
smile
But I fear you see me
In a way that is not myself
You see the parts deemed too big,
too large,
too heavy,
too wide.
Yes, I know its wrong to think this way
It is.
I know.
But it is the truth.
Just how it is.
Maybe you will prove me wrong
You'll look the other way
and see me for who I am.
Unlike me those chances are slim.
and you proabably won't.
And its Okay.
