Can I be
Someone who
Loves
Takes care of all things
Dear to me?
Can I?
Can I be
This kind person
I want to be?
Or
Will the whole thing
Escape, bypass this
Wondering Can I person
That’s me?

I know you haven’t seen me
Nor anything I do
Know
I’m just a back screen
Meaning nothing
Nothing
Ever to you.
I know I won’t be front and centre
In anything you do
But then I don’t care
You see
For you’re nothing to me
Or is anything
You ever do.
