if i were a narcissus
would you leave me dry?
sitting lonely in the sun
until i wilt and die
if i were a nightingale
would you slit my throat?
would you tie a string to my foot
and never let me go
where do we belong?
if i were the morning sun
would i wake your sleep?
would you stare into me too long
until you can no longer see?
in the morning i'll be gone
where do we belong?
