WHAT I LACK


Why do you want a piece of what I don’t have,
A part of what I truly do not know?

You once said – I Love you
I replied – I Love you

But did I mean it.
Did I even understand the words I used?
Well, No!

Argh!

Most times my brain takes me back to when I was a child!
When all I ever understood how to do is Imitate.

Hey,
I said those, all for the show.

I cannot give of what I don’t have.
What I in short lack.
