You Were Not Selfish Poem by A Waltz For Zizi

You Were Not Selfish



It's true, I am afraid
I did not matter to you,

even if like a child, I was devoted
to the things you spoke of.

Today, I am as ever.
It's easier to write letters

from the perspective
of a boy you left.

Perhaps I'm still waiting
for the day I will be grateful to you,

only that I might prove
you were not selfish.
