Why do you linger in the air around me?
And force me to hear your voice.
Why can I hear you call to me?
When I know you’re miles away.

Why does the moon scream your name?
And why do the stars not ask it to stop?
Why are there only five senses?
When your memory could occupy nine.

What’s wrong with me?
That makes me think I have a chance.
When I washed up your emotions,
Then hung them out to dry.

And why did you not warn me?
That he’d be the thing I needed most.
Or why did I not listen?
Where do I move on?

Watch me from wherever,
Watch me feel the pain.
That lingers in the air day and night,
Hear me scream your name.

JAVIER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...erm ok.

Anyhow, I liked the poem. Well done here. I felt it hard.  

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

Great poem, very nicely done here.

Here me scream your name.

That is a great last line for this poem, or icing on the cake if you will.
