Locate Me

Sit down, you say.
Relax and breathe.
Tell you what is on my mind?

Concentrate, please.
Close my eyes and think
Of answers to satisfy 
The questioning hour.

Let the words come.
Tell you anything; 
Anything at all?

Why I feel that way?
How I think they feel?
No pressure.

In time I will speak.
Patience - Patience is 
The golden key to open my mind;
Open my mind and
Banish these feelings.

Look at me:
In my eyes you see 
Indecipherable emotions;
Unseen adhesive of silence
Present on my lips.

Sadly, time is up, you say.
Goodbye, see you next time.

Time will always leave to 
Earn more superficialities.
Time does not allow
For genuine concern;
It denies any progress not made.

So I think quietly to myself-
Can time really help you
To help me;
When the time comes,
Will I ever know myself
To truly help you
Help me?

Goodbye, see you next time,
But I said instead.
