Staring at the ceiling <br />droplets of thought, running through my mind <br />the weeks prior- <br />the facts thereafter- <br />being seflish... a page behind <br /> <br />All you needed were some flowers <br />and a person to listen <br />a warm smile <br />with a lending ear. <br /> <br />I wanted to be all that <br />but my vision was not free- <br />I wanted to be all that <br />but stupid me, I did not see- <br /> <br />what an asshole I turned to be <br />please forgive me as that asshole is not me <br />I come to you on bended knee <br />as from the first to the last (days) <br />I begged for you to see <br />who we are- <br />were- <br />and what we could be! <br /> <br /> <br />Copyright © Adam Rubenstein February 2007<br /><br />Adam Rubenstein<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-lie-awake-at-night/
