You Asked Me


you asked me
what I wanted
I looked
and I pointed
then you told me
“it is not for you”
I wanted it
you knew it too
you asked ME
what I wanted
I looked
and again I pointed

With what did you point?
Was it loaded

Hmm..I'm not sure what exactly you had in mind for this poem, but this is what it made me think of.

I was thinking of when someone does indeed ask you what you want (as if they really want to know and are prepared to hand it to you)and you tell them...and for some reason you can't have it. Is this instance what you meant?

LOL! Just don't take a swing at me. LOL! I could just be off in my own little thought world tonight.

Lovely, Lady!

For all who watch.Dare you say hello? Come in and ask the questions that are on your mind, but spare me your judgement until you truly sipped of me.

Boy, do I know this! Of course the immediate and age old response is "then why did you ask?"

I think I shall point more, even though I was always told "not to point"...perhaps its time to break that rule...
