Interrupt

Not that I am sad or anything,
I was just wondering - no, that sounds silly -
I wish - that has a foolish sort of ring
As if I simply wanted willy-nilly -
I'd like - but it is more than that - oh, let
There be no verb: to know if you are feeling
The same way I - oh, you know what, forget
It all, I just won't ask. I'm reeling
From something inward-outward that receives
Its strength from what's outside - my missing you -
But gives its pain within me, where it grieves
And makes me weaker. Do you feel that way?
Not that I'm sad, but I am hardly gay.
