They See
/I get more solace
In a day
From strangers online
Than you’ve given me
In a lifetime
They ask
They listen
They see
You just speak
Holding me
To higher standards
Than you hold yourself
Judging me
For acting
How you act
Hating me
For being
Who I am
This poem is from the book, ‘A Requiem For What Could Have Been: Poetry For The Broken’.
