Remembering me
remembering you,
Remember me
trembling and entering you,
You bent over backwards
to take me all in,
You spent all your watchwords
to absolve your sin,
You masked your own soul
then held me (afraid),
You cast me in roles
that I seldom have played,
To hide your respect
from suspected informants,
It was you who directed
my erected performance.
You who inspired
your own inspiration.
You who desired
your own devastation.
I thought you were certain
but you were pretending,
You brought down the curtain
and with it our ending.
