another time

why don't you look me in the eye
anymore
you are always in a rush 
always brushing through 
it is never me that is the 
destination
i am merely a stone 
on which you step 
to get where you are going.
i don't know what changed. 
what shifted. 
but you walk through me, 
past me, 
around me,
and i'm left wondering what i did wrong. 
i don't know what it could be 
because it's not like you've even given me 
enough time 
to hurt or offend you 
please-wait! 
i just want 
to 
talk. 
i just want you 
to see 
me 
again
