Is There a Reason

Is There a Reason

Is there a reason

You sit

On the porch

All day

Laugh and tell jokes

When you call all

Your friends

Do you think

I don't notice

When you finally

Come in

You have

Nothing to say

Wish I'd just

Go away

Is there a reason

You stop everything 

Just for your boss 

Kiss her ass and

Do anything

Whenever asked

Yet ignore me

Like you wish

I'd get lost

Is there a reason

You light up

Like Christmas 

Give big hugs

And pat backs

When you see

A mere friend

Yet you

Won't touch me

Or give me

Even a kiss 

Is there a reason

You think

It's okay

To ignore me

When I've told you

The cold

Breaks my heart

Please come

Warm me

Is there a reason

You don't

Love me 

I'm not stupid

It shows

I just want know

Before I give up

Disappear

Forever

And just go
