I Don't Know You
I Don't Know You
When people ask
such simple
questions,
it only seems
as such,
and when
it comes
to their reply
it seems
as simple
much.
Would you this
or would you that
if you could
get away?
But never
do they
think it through,
so would you
want to
stay?
Anyone
can toss away
or fritter
precious time,
like floating like
a butterfly
from flowers
on a dime.
But who's to say
it'd be enough
and want to
leave it there,
and worse
I'd be
for pleasure's spree
to leave it
in the air.
