idk
thought i'd try a villanelle
and if you'd drop your problems and your hurt
i maybe just could try to learn your name
it frustrates me to see a battered frame
which, after i have scraped off all the dirt
reveals someone who looks to me the same
as i do. because ever since you came
i've wondered what sat silent and inert
waiting for me to come and learn your name
and so i've sought the reason for your shame
but i have no idea why you're hurt
and seeing you so sad pains me the same
that now i sense the person you became
is not your choice at all. so were it
easier for me to learn your name
i possibly could finally lay the blame
and learn what's broken you past all comfort
despite the fact that we are so the same
i know that i will never learn your name
