Writing to Wednesday

This is a poem I wrote back in march

Hem of my Dress


You don't know my fears
You can't listen with my ears
My hands shake back and forth
You look at me like I'm from 1941

Take a step too close
Don't move a muscle
Make eye contact 
With my hand on the hem of my dress

Make your self at home
Leave me standing at the door
Sneak up behind me
Let me cough on nothing
Let me hold your hand

I never done anything like this before
You should've known 
The consequences leading up to
This part, leading up to now
Is just a fabrication, let alone real 

Your hair curls around your face
My eyes dart to your eyes in a daze
Faintly out of reach
Nothing seems to matter 

I never done anything like this before
You should've known 
The consequences leading up to
This part, leading up to now
Is just a fabrication, let alone real
