I am far too petty not to block you out (I could easily speak) I will lick my wounds in peace and learn in silence (I will learn what you never intended to teach) I will never beg for reciprocation, for the same I am willing to give (for the same I will lose the will to give)
I will hold that want to my chest and fold it into the pile of other thoughts I have certainly never pondered (because I am not ****, am mature, would never begin to think...)
When bitten, I am bitter and sour and sweet like rotting fruit (I am vulnerable and still tending old wounds) When pushed, I am prideful and insecure and hurt like a child (I am willing to listen if there are words to hear) When tested, I am cold uncaring and invulnerable like stone (I will grow impossibly detached if only given the chance)
I will (hopefully) never be the last to you because (even if I want to), as an adult, I (am trying to) address my problems rather than doing my best to hurt them (I am furious and I will be more angry when I force myself to be calm).
