Listless

written 16th April 2013

tell me that you miss me i dare you. come back and tell me what you remember see if i care. tell me what you saw in your dreams     in your fantasies     and in your nightmares     and tell me what we were in your mares. tell me everything that you heard     when you weren’t listening to me, tell me what you felt     when I wasn’t there, tell me the time and place where we first met, tell me the very first thing you said to me. what did you see in the moonlight,     under the grass and beneath the sunlight,     atop the skylight in your     worst dreamscape? where did you see us and how did we look, how did you know and how did you hate the taste     of bitter surrender     of teary goodbyes     and the vision through bloodshot eyes     and the eerie echoes that separates us and how did you feel? how did you escape from the withered dimensions of forceful compressions between each of your heartbeats,     how did I fare     through it all?     now tell me you miss me     i dare         you.
