Your attention

So, what all to catch your attention
To catch your attention in such a way
That you respond with a smile
Or you react with a question
May be at least a receipt of "noted"

To what end is your attention
To seize your attention is such a thing
Smile is a joy healing my soul
Question is a massage healing my psyche
Notice is a hope endorsing my life

But what magic is your attention
Unknown to your senses, I still exist
In the drought of those smiles, soul still survives
In absence of your queries, mind still mends
But it is the loss of hope that bleeds the heart

As it turns out, it's my attention that's caught
Caught by you and yours that is free
So, is it an attempt - at - revenge to grab your care
Or a show of spirit to salvage a win
Rocks that refuse to flow. Sea that refuses to hold
