Being Watched

The one happening; 
which never happned. 
A slice of mock invasion on 
inner sanctum to find your own name.
Who were you ?
A mind not on the mend ? A 
house you were not living in ?

The forecast was wary of strangers. 
A deadly intent was hurling 
the desires onto the stones 
of eyes. A fog hides the melt.

You were not ready for syntax,
a rhyme breaks into sobs.
Washed by pain, a sting 
becomes the poem.
