I hate the knowing.
The knowing of what's going to happen before it happens.
I know what she's going to say.
I know what he's going to do.
Predictability.
People.
Reactions.
I've been here before.
I don't know how much time I have left.
But.
I know it isn't much.
So.
Can we just cut to the chase.
I'm going to say.
Then you're going to say.
Then I'm going to counter with.
And you're going to react like.
So I'll reinforce.
You'll roll your eyes.
And the dance goes on.
How about we just say "*******" and call it a night?
Then I can go back to drinking.
You can put down the facade of empathy.
And.
Well I guess I don't know after that.
I suppose.
We'll both find someone else to dance with.
