Analysis of You’re Watching Me Watch You Watch Me Watching You



I sit within your world
I sit apart

As I write
Tonight
It comes from the heart

I’m blinded by the sunshine and can’t see my way through

What I’ve created
Has vibrated

And screamed of art

You’ll feel my presence
You’ll see my stance

At first stare
You’ll glare
But try to pass it off as a glance

I’m blinded by the sunshine and can’t see what you do

My being
Is breathing

And intercepting your trance
