Description Tell me why
Tell me why all I want is to sleep
Tell me why I turn on the fan
To feel no change in heat
Incomplete

Tell my why he is a boy and never a man
Tell me why my laugh has chosen to weep.
If love is known only from the actions it prompts,
What think you then of my mock-poetry taunts?

Tell me why you teach me, only to forget
Tell me how, these compliments,
You never want nor will to regret
My feet are slow, my heart defects
Yet you know these words my pen rejects.

Tell me, tell me
What did you say?
Your words unheard
As I turn
To look away.
