The first one A bully Keeping me on a leash Under threat of abandonment
The second one left Moved to another state Robbing me even Of the opportunity to be chosen To cut his goodbye cake
The third one was too girly Weak willed, too easily embarrassed and self conscious One who’d rather Be the star of a pretend fashion show Than attempt dangerous and Exciting escapades In the playground
The fourth were a pair But new schools Different interest New friends New workloads Made it difficult to keep up And the relationship drifted away
The fifth were once again a pair But, too caught up in each other Until a falling out with one And a lack of opportunities to see the other And eventual conflict between the two Shattered that relationship to a fragment of its former self
The sixth was too self obsessed With too many problems of her own Sleep deprivation Prone to sicknesses Struggling with classes And a general lack of social awareness And extreme denseness And seriousness Ended that too
And now, I’m on the seventh We shall see how it goes Thus far we are two completely different specimens of people One would opt for ****** Doo and Agatha Christy The other for cheesy romance Asian dramas and light novels One would rather be building the sets The other, on the stage One cares nothing at all for other’s thoughts The other cares too much One wants to be a police woman The other simply cannot choose It shouldn’t be possible Yet it is And perhaps, it is our extreme differences that bring us together That keeps us from clashing Or, Maybe something in our respective personalities find solace in the other Whatever the case I hope we last
