Poetry day 10

Impress

Are you here to impress me with your words?

Do you seek to lie to me once again?

I do not know who you are any more,

Although your voice is one I think I know,

There is a familiarity there,

I cannot explain but it makes me safe

I think, to have you near me when I fail.

Your voice tells me you love me.  I believe

On those days my mind does not trick me,

But those days are less now and you stranger

I know, look at me with fear and sadness

For what must come next.  For what must come next.
