You make me hungry
...
Let me try again
...
We sat and watched
Walked and touched
Stood and kissed
I promise I do more than just sweat
Oh I wanted to apologize
For breaking your stuff
And
For being flakey
And
For the way the universe spun our destinies in an inexplicable, individual intersection rather than a permanent, parallel path.
AND I wanted to thank you
For all the funny videos
And
For being my crash course
And
For your thoughts, your consistent focus, your dependability in a GOD FORSAKEN world at the times I needed clarity and all I could see was the back of the lenses made to help me see farther
Tell me, does this sound like a goodbye?
Let's just be genuine like we always are
I dig you.
And
I don't want to be the one to bury you.
I know a good amount of your scars and I don't want my name on one of them.
Not one
So before we do this,
before we commit
to this perishable product and it's ever approaching expiration date.
Let's be genuine like we always are
Tell me it won't hurt. Tell me you can take it. Tell me... The truth?
Is that what I want?
I thought I wanted the truth. Now I only want it if it's not what I expect.
SO SURPRISE ME
is that what I'm trying to say?
Honey
Baby
I'm a sucker for surprises
I mean
Aren't we all?
Don't we all
Need a good shock to the system every now and then?
And that's all you've ever been to me
So you'll tell me what I want to hear and call it the truth, harboring ulterior motives.
And I'll buy into it and call it acceptable, thinking, "things have changed" "it's different now" "this can work"
You can make a man lie to himself so easily, you know that?
Resentment?
No
Frustration?
Not really
What is it?
You make me hungry
...
Let me try again
...
No
Not again
