My World

Leave me alone

That I might breathe

The air that is meant for

Just me. Alone, no one else

Deserves the same

Because when I wake up

Everything is mine ahead of me

Please don’t get in my way

Especially now

Certainly later when no one

Is looking

Well you won’t be hearing the word

Please

By now you understand

That is just a ploy

To get what I need

Oh you mean that

Time

I looked you in the eye?

Pretty sure by now

Insight has taken over

I only wanted something

And

You

Were

In

My

Way

That outcome

The aftermath

When everyone is smiling

Is only the measure

Of how far my needs

Stretched into your world

To simply grasp

Upon what is deservedly

Substantial

My world
