I sat staring blankly
at your face,
wondering
thinking
if it was truly you
I sat staring blankly
at your beastly face
reminiscing the days
days filled pain
My mind cringed
at the thought of you
I sat staring blankly
at your wicked face
The times when I
felt as small as the second to the hour
Why?
You were of no value too
So many questions
few too answers
I sat staring
at your lousy face
And there
you sat, staring
blankly back at me.
