A Poem by Erundur Anwamehtar
11/06/2002
I reached out, took what I wanted,
and left you needing everything
I can never give you.
Stop looking at me, grabbing with your eyes.
I can’t help you now.
Walking past you used to be so hard.
My heart jumped and fell
when you ignored me� every time.
In the end I gave in and got your attention
the only way I knew how.
I manipulated you just like the other boys did,
and now I’ve won the game.
The tear trickles down the mirror,
seeing yourself for the first time.
Now you’re free.
