| because. |
| when you send me poetry to read and it takes me a while don’t think it’s because i’m so enthralled with the words i’m seeing it’s because i have other things to do and i’ve just put you in the middle of the list. when you say something to me and i reply right back don’t think it’s because i want to hear your words so badly that i’ve put you above everything else it’s because i’m not rude, and i like to respond to people when i talk to them. when you say something strange that throws me off and i’m not sure what to say don’t think you’ve left me speechless because you haven’t. and when you get upset with something that i’ve said don’t think i’m going to stop my world to cater to your feelings because i’m not. when you feel like shit don’t think i’m going to put everything on hold just to make you feel better you’ve never done that for me. i’ve never expected you to so why should i do it for you? and when you yell and scream and kick your legs and want me to just go away believe me, i will. your gravitational pull isn’t that strong, buddy. so when you start to think i want you near me all the time when you think i need you when you think i might love you don’t think it’s true. because it isn’t. |
