Poetry: When you look at me

by Wayne K. Wilkins

Created on: March 09, 2008

When you look at me;
What do you see?
Do you see what I feel?
See what I desire?

When I look at you;
Do you know what I see?
Do you know what I feel?
Know what I desire?

I long for you;
To hold you in my arms;
To look deep into your eyes;
To fix your broken heart;
To give my life to perfecting yours;
To give my love to you for an eternity;

Now tell me;
What do you see?
Do you see what I truly feel?
Do you see what I truly desire?

What do you see?
Do you simply see the exterior?
The brave smile on my face;
Covering the broken heart,
I do not want to look sad; I do not want to look weak;
But you, my darling, you are what I seek.

Tell me now;
One last time.

What do you see, when you look at me?
