Think Of Me As Distant Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Think Of Me As Distant



Think of me as distant.
Think of me as being out of sight.
'Oh, no.
Why would I want that so? '
Just think of me as distant.
Think of me as someone you don't like.
'Oh, no.
Why would I want that so? '

Urges I have...
You can't fulfill.
But all your needs I feed.
And on just a whim I do this 'deed',
Because...
That's how I thought it was,
With you.
But you never did this for me.
'So 'you' say.'

Think of me as distant.
Think of me as being out of sight.
'Oh, no.
Why would I want that so? '
Just think of me as distant.
Think of me as someone you just don't like.
'Oh, no.
Why would I want that so? '

Urges I have...
You can't fulfill.
But all your needs I feed.
And on just a whim I do this 'deed',
Because...
That's how I thought it was,
With you.
But you never did this for me.
'So 'you' say.'

I do.
And I want this distance to keep.
It's true.
I do...
Want this distance between us to keep.
Think of me as distant.
Think of me as out of sight.
Think of me as distant.
Think of me as someone unliked,
Because I want this distance to keep and from you...
I do,
Want this distance between us to keep.
It's true I do want this distance between us to keep.

You can think of me as distant,
Like you do when we're around some other people.
You can think of me as out of sight.
Like you do when we're around some other people.
You can think of me as out of sight.
Like you do when we're around some other people.
And someone you don't know or like.
Like you do when we're around some other people.
You can think of me as distant.
Distant.
Distant.
You can think of me as distant.
Distant.
Distant.
