Okay already…….

you waited too long

for you……it’s not a new song

–

so you know you need to get some things off your chest

at the time it doesn’t matter anyone who will listen fits the requirements

so you cross paths with an acquaintance…. Not actually a friend

when they take a breath after a brief reconnection…..your rant begins

at first it’s received with nods and smiles

then the weight and smell of your garbage has turned the conversation into a trail

after your defense has rested from being out of breath

the prosecution steps up and points a few things out

like control and assumptions and selfishness and doubt ……when they are through you are ready to do away with yourself

so you just smile and say goodbye and you look back and see their head shaking ….you really want to cry

well you got it off your chest with the first person who would listen to it

you don’t feel better……. You feel like a kid

and you realize that confiding with the wrong person

just like setting yourself on fire 🔥
