What the Body Remembers

Poem 5

Did You Know

1 min · 1 min left

Did you realize that my love was yours and I waited in the shadows wondering if you would notice me standing there

Did you know that once you noticed me I opened the window for you to come home

You were afraid to come inside did you think that I would shut the window when I saw you approach

Were you worried that I would not stay home did you think that I would walk into the window of another man

Did you wonder if my heart would ever be yours did you think that I would let someone else steal all of me

Do you see what we have done we saved our hearts from hurt and hurt our hearts ourselves

Did you know that I put my heart away that I have locked my window forever.
