I Am Tired

and i imagine her
laughing

as though
she is sure of herself

as she removes the
patches
covering her eyes

and she tells me
that i am embarrassed

or that i must be
embarrassed at the end

she is the woman
so sure of herself

when she wakes up
everyone has left her

for good and they
are not coming back anymore
