Leave the grave alone

I am the not the man 
You’ve thought I was
I spin circles around 
My own nerves
You think of me
As a neurotic wily boy
A confidante
I am not such
You cannot just speak
Sweetly to me and touch me\
And think I am yours
I have no thought
About what I drudge through
It’s not you
Which should relieve you
Cuz obviously I am repulsive
But I have graves to attend to
Memories to pay homage to
Your touch is a snake
I cannot help
You see a person
Who doesn’t exist
My smile is nought
My laughter a joke
All that is real is my thoughts
Spread in my pages
BUt I cannot give you those
Because you alone can hurt me
And my mask will prevent that
You spoke of knowing me
That is not possible
No one does
Im a grave with face and name
So please stop 
And leave the grave alone. 
I need you to stop.
