"Me Child"


I don't have any frame of reference for this poem. All I remember is that I wrote it at a time when I was having serious feelings for Andy Gene(sp?). I was a Freshman in college.
September 1992


A mysterious puzzle are you
Boy turned man because of necessity.
Trying to make yourself important to peers,
Trying to tell everyone to see through the lack of years.

Older by choice, not by aging,
And every minute feeling as if you never were born.
Some say it's truth; others lie.
Some never forgetting that you're the reason why.

I've always watched you in hope,
Hope that someday you'll glance my way.
Girl turned young because of her peers,
Trying to tell everyone to see through the mass of years.
