Look at me now! because if you could see
what part of me this is you could truly understand. That in the nights that I dream I dream not of pretty little things of glitter and myth but of the silent bell tone rings, Pulling my curiosity. Dragging me down this knotted path that I know naught of where it goes. Maybe if you could look at me, You would see how hard it is to fight what I truly want to be! I told you I just couldn't do it but you weren't looking. "Just keep fighting" you said. I am tired of fighting! Fighting for something that I know isn't real. All those years of taking the illusion seriously? When your friend is looking at you and screaming this in your face, Will you look to her then? Look at me NOW! How could you not look at me and see that I am not the person you want me to be? That I have my own Dreams! Look me in the eyes and tell me! do not hide from me, Face me! Teach me, turn me around when I finally give up and walk away. Look at me then! Look at me now!
And tell me what you see.

- Title: Look at me
- Artist: Aegirsdottir
- Description: I was growing extremely tired of speeking to people and having them looking at their feet, or telling someone something and being dismissed and discarded. This got nominated for a slam contest in '07 after I read it at a coffe joint. It is rather difficult to see the rhythm and meter, you have to make one up and see if it works. It isn't nearly the same reading it as it is hearing it; or so I am told.
