See me?
On the sidelines of your life?
On the bench, alone?
I guess you don’t.
I guess it is too little too late.
Don’t you see me?
How hard I’ve tried?
I reach out, but touch wall.
I reach out, but hear nothing.
Have you been locked in a cage?
Pushed from another’s life?
I don’t think so.
I don’t think you ever have.
Maybe if it had happened to you
You would see me
Screaming for the keys
And you’d open the door.
But you don’t, do you?
See me?
Please.
