"May I Ask You a Question?"
If I asked you a question,
would you reject it,
and leave me alone in despair?
If I asked you to answer,
would you recant it,
and regret ever meeting me there?
Do you remember
the days through September
when we gazed and we gazed at the sky?
Do you remember
all through December
when you asked if I could fly?
Do you recall
when you said I did fall
and was caught by thousands of doves?
Do you recall
after quite a long stall
that you said I was sent from above?
Can you imagine
what I was feeling
when you called me your angel from heaven?
Can you imagine
what went through my heart
when you claimed I was a perfect eleven?
Can you imagine
oh how my heart was reeling
from the feeling you gave me each day?
Can you imagine
how my world started spinning
the minute you said you wouldn't stay?
Can you please tell me
what you were thinking
when you lied and said you cared?
Can you please tell me
what you were feeling
when you threw away the moments we shared?
Can you please tell me
why my heart is broken
and I am still alive and breathing?
Can you please tell me
why I am not trapped
on the poisonous web you were weaving?
Will you confess
to this deed you committed
which caused me an everlasting pain?
Will you confess
to the crime you committed
when you slit my most vulnerable vein?
Will you confess
to the death you did cause
when you led me to believe in your lie?
Will you confess
to the sin you did do
when you caused my heart to die?
Do you regret
how you left me on the bench
and I sobbed and I wept and I wept?
Do you regret
how soaked I did get
when I kept the wet coat that you left?
Do you regret
anything at all
of what you did to destroy all of me?
Do you regret
any of the things
you whispered under that dark Willow tree?
Can you remember
the smell of the soil
after it rained end on end?
Can you remember
how we met at a bench
and you said you wanted a friend?
Can you remember the smell of the flowers
as they cascaded
along in the breeze?
Can you remember
their elegant appearance
after the winter's gentle freeze?
Will you forget
the picture we made
in the dirt beneath the tree?
Will you forget
how happy I was
after you set the butterfly free?
Will you forget
my entire existence
and smoothly move on with your life?
Will you forget
how much I do hurt
because you stabbed me with a knife?
I will ask you one question
and you don't have to answer
as that is the American way.
But do you regret
when you walked into the park
and met me that oh so special day?
If I asked you a question,
would you reject it,
and leave me alone in despair?
If I asked you to answer,
would you recant it,
and regret ever meeting me there?
