Seeing Him
                           by Kronin Wanderforth

Seeing Him
Wanting Him
Needind Him
Seeing Him

       He glances my way
  I flash
     a nervous
        grin
     "HI"
    And look away.

      His eyes
          His voice
              His smile

    The world I want
             ...need
             ...desire...

Who goes there?
       He wants
          needs
          desires
 another?
Aruoghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!?

Pain,
      the want...
He wants
   another
(Like I care)
      I need him
here NOW
 
   I look
   but he doesn't

Does he know?
Am i jelous?
   me?
is he happy?
      I hope so...
I love him
       (I think)
isn't
      that
  enough?


   The Painwantdesirelovefrustrationlustfire
   won't go away
         does he care
          (does it matter?)

death
    would
        be
         better
      (than what!)

I feel the pain
  of wounds that
     are so emo-
                tional 
      they become 
        physical.

      I said hi.
         he said
             (does it 
matter what
    he said)
     I DON'T
REMEMBER
                I SAID
hi
         and he said
      (something)

         Seeing him I 
         smile.
             I said HI

and he said Hello
