Who What and When?
2-5-03

I can sense that you are afraid, dear kitten.
I can see the concern in your wild eyes,
In the walls that you erect.
I know there is some pain that you have hidden.
Coming off like one of the though guys,
Very hard for one to detect.
Who’s the one who left you so scarred?

I sense a bond that I cannot explain.
I want to know you,
To touch you, to make you, forget about your pain.
Yet, you are so private, so estranged.
I really want to get through,
I know more than you think about the roots to your pain.
What can be done to break down your walls?

I see a heart damaged by abuse.
I see scars that run so deep,
Is what I am seeing the truth?
I can’t believe that you could be used,
In such a way, what a creep
And by a love, whom you thought was true.
When can I hold you and quell all your fears?
