But all I do is stare.
Wondering why your speaking bare,
Tears everywhere.

Is a blank question.
Cause you’ll respond,
With human convention.
Tell me what you want,
I’m no good with lies.
It’s more puzzling for me,
Than games of spies.
I magnify what your trying to tell,
But I’m in so deep,
I fall under a spell.
I can’t turn away,
My mind in another realm,
Trying to make sense of your show and tell.
