I See You Looking At Me... Poem by YURI DURAAN

I See You Looking At Me...

Rating: 5.0


I see you looking at me.
You are no-one special, you know...

the way you stand near me,
forcing me to be aware of your presence...
when your eyes seek mine, making contact
and then pretending its accidental

I am fully aware of your tricks
and they certainly do not affect me
and, should you not be around for even one day
I shall not miss you or even notice that you are gone

and when I bump into you again my
heart will not leap and my pulse will not quicken..

Because you are no-one special, you know...

Neat poem. Self-deprecating in its quiet put down of the person whom you are engaging.
