&ldquo;Don&rsquo;t let anyone ever make you feel like you don&rsquo;t deserve what you want.&rdquo;<br /> - Patrick Verona, 10 Things I Hate About You


I stand on the corner,
offering my secrets
to those passing
on the sidewalk

They stop and listen
for however long
they wish
before moving on

Unknowingly,
they walk away
with every secret
I’ve ever owned

But instead of words
to carry around
in their pockets
along with change,

I give them
the melody
that pours from my fingers
into my violin
