do you have to look at me like that?....
with your eyes
your lack of necessity for me
i envy your detachment
i thought i saw your fire
just then
i yearn to be burnt again
i'm not your enemy
open your cell
let down your guard
i can be your salvation
but i fear you're blind to your own self-constructed walls
you can't see my hands
reaching out to grasp at the tips of your windowsills
trying to get inside
i'm just another passerby to you....
why can't you see more?
why can't you see my fire?
i could open your eyes.
i hang around
to see your release
but i'm not sure if i can hang out here much longer
if you'd only let me....
i could give you more.
