Question that remains unanswered

Question that remains unanswered​

I dared.

I dared to do something that mattered to you.

And I got fucking slated – what would have done if I had done nothing?

I dared to do what you wanted and still I dare.

Pursued. Damned.

Then, for some reason, you wanted me to look at you,

Look at you as though you belong to an alien species.

Like you belong to a zoo. A creature that is something, like it is to be observed rather than interacted with – is it that way for you?

Are you really anything that says you are worthy of my attention? Do you matter?

Why is it that I must think like that?

What is it that makes ‘you’ so special?

Where will this begin and end?

I can see you from a screen. As though you are a monkey.

I loved.

You are not my pet.

You were someone that mattered to me.

It is as if you want to be a picture.

A Mona Lisa.

An expostulation of indifference.

Yet you want me to dare.

I still care,

I still dare...
