Not In Sight 

"listen to my cry
i need to talk"
we sit
drink
eat, but
listen not
   "look at me
   i'm human too"
   we sit
   you look -
   open your eyes
   to my point of view
"i need a hug
touch me"
that embrace
warm
wrong
and cold - short
   you speak
   i hear
   your look
   i see - but what?
   you say
   interpret wrong
what is the answer
to my love?
in it fear
cry
myself
to sleep....
