Untitled Poem # 4

Erin Weiler

17 February 2004

My chest tightens – my heart races

And my anger grows

‘Cause I have to use words

He already knows.



Why do I hone nothing new

Nothing better – just me

While his life was once full

And all I can offer is simple.



His world so different

And I want it so bad

Just for a moment

To experience what he had.



So maybe we’d be closer

And I understand

His precious mind, better than I

To get the answer to why.



That fuckin’ mystery growing.

When he tries to let me in

I feel like an outsider

To really knowing him.
