i’m watching you
watch me
across IPs
and cities.

but do you see me?
i’m right where you
left me.
with a universe
inside me—
where we used to be.

now these masquerades,
aren’t we?
too deep
for maybe.

you didn’t
choose me.

i know you’ve been wondering—
aren’t you? wondering.
where we are,
where we could be.
i don’t let you see me.

will you?
call me.
