![]() Questions with no AnswersA Poem by Frank Purcell![]() A boy lies dying, and all these questions pass through his mind. They are directed at a girl he has loved his entire life.![]()
Do you notice, when Im no longer there
Do you notice, how i always stared Do you notice, how i smelt the air As you passed; to smell your hair Do you notice, they way i often hide Do you notice, over you i cried Do you notice, the way i sighed With ignorance, all was simplified Did you notice, a tear fall Did you notice, how i stopped and stalled Did you notice, I gave it my all And when i died, it was you i called Did you hear, me saying please Did you hear, me pass with ease Did you hear, my breathing cease As a tear fell, i hit me knees Didn't you know, that i was scared Didn't you know, i was unprepared Didn't you know. that i always cared I thought it was over, but my life was spared Did you see, my breath come back to me Did you see, that I'd paid a fee Did you see, that emotionally You finally saw what i always see Did you watch, as i then stood Did you watch, as i lowered my hood Did you watch, as i understood When i felt they way, i knew i should You finally realised, what i saw in you You finally realised, what you should do You finally realised, so i was sent back too... Tell you that, I'm over you. © 2011 Frank PurcellAuthor's Note
