Two Sides

I should've:

Given it some thought,

Given you a call,

Asked you upfront what did you

Want

Instead of trying to be a

Know-it-all

Psychic reading

Between the lines

From where the

Problem

Would arise

We fall

Before taking off

Into the sunset

You're upset

My choosing to abide the

False text

You've given me...

Though I might have

Misinterpreted

Your thoughts

When I spoke of how

I felt

Making a first commitment

Now I expect

That you won't respect

What I can give to thee...

My purity...

I'll keep my distance

Like you've kept

Yours

That might be best

For Me

To get over

These surreal emotions

That created the dream of

You and me.

She thought that:

I haven't

Earned you

In my eyes.

Tears cloud my

Vision

Of having me on your side

Like I've forever wanted.

Instead I fronted

Knowing the truth

I shouldn't

Hide

I was taught to play these games

These time of days

You can't find

A human being.

There's just people who

Lie,

Wanting temporary intimacy.

I didn't think there were some

Who wouldn't try

Fooling me.

Let alone someone who found my

Flaws

So interesting.

I wasn't sure on a reaction

So I

Retracted

Didn't mean to shank

Your feelings

I couldn't understand my own

I can't find

closure

To this problem on my own.

I've yet had the courage

To communicate,

With fear

Of only causing more harm

So I'll wait for

Your next call...

But never answer.
