Who will hear me?
Who will rend the veil of insecurities about me
And peer keenly into that dark?
Am I doomed to never know the true import
Of these scribbly pearls I string?
(Individually knotted with apathy)
Selfish, I suppose, for it matters not how I'm remembered
I will be feast for oblivion, as all, and lost to care
NOW is all I have ... now is what I want
With but a crumb of recognition
A speck of acknowledgment
Recompense to loss
Who will hear me?
