Notice Me
January 8, 2011
Your eyes glazed over past me yesterday.
I said hello to you today.
And today, today, you looked through me.
Stop acting like I don’t exist.
Stop pretending I’m not here.
Because I do.
I exist.
I’m here, aren’t I?
I’m standing to next to you, aren’t I?
Please, please, tell me that I am here.
Tell me that I am flesh and bones, next to you.
Tell me that I am in the same universe you are in.
Tell me that you can hear me, see me, smell me, feel me.
Please don’t tell me I’m fading
I don’t want to fade away—
Tell me I am here.
