wonder

sometimes i wonder if you really love me
or if i'm just

an interlude
a stop along the way

do you hate my quirks, the things i can't change about myself?
the fact that i won't eat meat and can't be in a car unless
i know the driver?

does the fact that i smoke, regardless of my doctor's advice,
drive you crazy?
or the fact that i watch the same movie over and over again,
in the background?

do you wish i wore my hair a different way,
or dressed up more often?

do you know what color my eyes are?
do you know what i'm thinking about right now?

sometimes i think that i am just
a distraction
or a good lay
or a place to crash downtown

sometimes you disappear
and i don't know why

i've only just started to wonder these things
since it finally sunk in
that you don't always tell me what's going on
in your achingly beautiful heart

it's amazing how often i close my eyes
and picture your smile

but now i wonder
if you ever do the same thing
