Are you watching me?
What do you see?
What are you thinking?
My face is so hot
Am I enough?
Did you see that moment?
What are you thinking?
I can’t think straight
Were you able to see more than the surface?
How do you know me?
What are you thinking?
I am sweating so much
Can you feel their comfort?
Do you hear their voices?
What are you thinking?
It is so hot in here
Did you catch a glimpse of vulnerability?
Am I enough?
What are you thinking?
I love how there are so many ways to read this poem–I imagined a whole lot of different voices with each rereading. These questions feel so universal!
