Expectations

What am I supposed to do?

Or say?

Or see?

Or believe?

How am I supposed to react?

Or look?

Or move?

Or be?

Who am I today – the perfect lover?

Or daughter?

Or sister?

Or friend?

What do you see in me? 

My beauty?

My creativity?

My sensuality?

My kindness?

My honesty?

Have you ever seen me?

I’ve tried so hard to please you.

Have I?

Have I?

Have I?

How was the love we made?

The food I cooked?

The grade I received?

The dance I’ve done?

The advice I’ve given? 

Or the joke I’ve made

Of my life?
