You say so much
To mean so little
You cry but you're not really upset
Scream when everything is okay
Give out your empty compliments
Plead tragedies and platitudes and graces
Filling up every room
With nothing

Finally when all goes quiet
Every word you said
Lingers on my brain
It permeates and wraps and slithers
Spewing a false narrative that I must resist

I hate people like you
People who say so much
Meaning so little
