What's Hidden Behind Your Eyes?

By WaryDreamer

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Do you ever think of me  as you walk along your way?Do thoughts of me flash 'cross your mind  throughout your busy day?Does your heart sometimes skip a beat  if you should hear my name?Do you remember teaching me  how to really play love's game?Do you ever stop and wonder  where I would be this minuteOr imagine how my life'd be  without your influence in it?Do you ever have a question of  how different you would beIf I had never met you  and you'd never talked to me?Do you ever pause to realize  how very much I cared?Do you ever stop and think about  various times we shared?Do you only think of me  as you lie down to rest?Do my memories give you pleasure  or remind you of a pest?Do you lock me in a box  hidden deep from all your thoughtsOr do you let me roam around  and consider me a fault?Do you put me high upon a shelf  far up and out of sight?Do you take me down occasionally  to relieve a lonely night?Do you read these things I've written  then lay them down at last?Does a smile sneak across your face  as you recall the past?...  Or do you even take the time      to think of me at all?  Was I always just an after thought...      nothing more?...that's all?                      mAugust 1987 Written November 29th, 2001 © on Nov 29 2001 02:48 PM PST   18 • 0 • 8
