I can't think of anything you could say
that would make me start to trust you
again
I really can't
So while the hens sit and chitter to
each other
cluck cluck clucking away about the
grand meaning of it all
I sit here yelling at you in my head
too polite
too realistic
to yell at you anywhere else.
It was time you said you needed
so time you've had
a lifetime's worth
yet again
and meanwhile
lives moved on
lives moved on
lives moved on and over and through and
both nothing and everything has changed
really
both nothing and everything has changed
Audacity
a word he keeps using
and now I may have to turn towards you
if you have the audacity to want to be a
friend now
Now? After all the things said and
not said
done and undone
after the way you spoke
and treated
and asked for things beyond what's fair
or kind
or nice at all
You were the one who told me you were
grown up
and could play with the other side of
the room
You were the one who told me
that this time, THIS time you meant it
for real
and I would be the one
you knew I was
for you
grown up
and
truthful
