Poetry Question Poem

It's a skill I've mastered

I've won the hearts of everyone

How do I hold back my laughter

I've heard that I've gone home

What can I say, I can't die

Ever since I've died while alive

Now, I just have to face myself

I've passed by everyone

The same charms and graces, the same gestures

I've become all about you

I'm a strange accusation of the times

I've become the target of everyone here

I've never reached myself

While there, I've spent a lifetime

Since the day I met you, my love

I've been terrified of myself

There’s mourning in the lane of my beloved

Because I've suddenly become better

June Elia
