for once- notice (your lack of me)


THE FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND: Green sky and blue grass/ run over the freaking stop sign/ graffiti on the walls/ slits on my wrist/ tears from the clouds/ blur my vision/ as time goes back and forth/ i whisper in your ear:/ "Good night, you'll be happy to know.../ that i'm being tortu'red now."/ you move, as if to wake up/ but simply turn over/ you won't notice my absence/ but i beg that you notice/ the footprints in the sand...
