Are you listening?
I scream and shout furiously...why don’t you answer?
  Are you afraid to show me your true colors?
Are you hearing me?
I call out your name...do you know that it’s you I seek?
  Are you enjoying your time in the paradise city?
Are you watching?
I drop down clenching my fists with agony...do you see me on my knees?
  Are you watching reality TV with the volume on mute?
Are you caring?
I feel such pain...do you care to wrap your arms around my shaking body?
  Are you holding back the urge to reach out to my flesh?
Are you remembering?
I reminisce 10 foot sunflowers...do you remember their earthy smell?
  Are you paging through the photo album you buried when you left?
Or are you simply being?
I wonder immense wonders...do you join my blindside, whispering nothings in my ear?
  Are you remaining a secret? Perhaps it is just until I join you...
