Patient 102 - Connecting
Misty eyed and smiling
But she sees me not.
I smile back and coax her;
Still she sees me not.
Guide her to the window
Seems she sees me not,
Try to find what’s hidden,
Lo, she sees me not.
I know there’s a reason
That she sees me not,
Attempt to find a trigger
No, she sees me not.
But, somehow, she’s changing
Though she sees me not,
Next time we might break through
As she sees me not,
And maybe someday I will know
Why she sees me not.
