W for You to Notice

This was written for her around two years ago.

What of the fact that
I imitate the gods
and try to speak their language
so I could emulate their
greatness?

What of the fact that
I want you to be
surprised, grief-stricken
and epileptic all at
the same time?

What about the fact
that I try to be someone
instead of a statistic?

What about if I do
these things just for
your eyes to smile and
for your soul to dance?

What about the fact
that I became a sell-out for
you to notice that I love you?
