Please

See me?

On the sidelines of your life?

On the bench, alone?

I guess you don't.

I guess it is too little too late.

Don't you see me?

How hard I've tried?

I reach out, but touch wall.

I reach out, but hear nothing.

Have you been locked in a cage?

Pushed from another's life?

I don't think so.

I don't think you ever have.

Maybe if it had happened to you

You would see me

Screaming for the keys

And you'd open the door.

But you don't, do you?

See me?

Please.
