"He Asks Me” by Najwa Zebian

 

He asks me:

“What do you want from me?”

I stare at him in silence

With tears fighting to stay

buried inside my eyes,

with thoughts swirling in my mind

like a hurricane.

“What do you want from me?” he asks

over and over.

 

I am confused because

I know and

I don’t know.

 

You were the one

who knocked on my door.

You were the one

who wouldn’t allow me to close my door.
