Cold Touch
Your warmth came at a time
In which I needed it most
But all you ever cared about
Was the curl of my toes.
I told you about my insecurities
And how you had a habit of making me weak
But all you ever wanted
Was for me to get down on my knees.
At first you were all about
Making me smile, and trying to
Spit game,
But that ended so quickly
And you were quick to put the blame.
That night at your house
I wasn't nervous on my end
I remember your line up crisp,
Looking like nothing but a ten.
You let me lay next to you,
The space between us small,
You knew the closer I got
The more that I would fall.
But I wasn't that naive...
No, not me.
To believe we'd ever get anywhere
Would be like a rerun of
Freshman year me.
You made it seem like you cared
Asking me questions on questions
Your sentences elaborate and
Charismatic.
You.
Responding to every messages
Within the same hour,
Knowing that continuing things
Gave you more power.
Clearly I was into you
Clearly I wanted something new
But clearly wasn't enough
To make you see us through.
