where you wanted
to go to eat
i didn't expect this
deconstruction
of everything you
hold dear
sometimes
all i want
is a simple
yes or no
not a rocking
tower of
syllables
quaking with emotion
over absolutely
nothing
your problem is
you take everything
so seriously
what happened to
the giggly girl
i was enchanted by
a few short years away?
why does everything
become all
fraught with meaning
when it's just
simply you
and direct me
trying to get along?
downsize
your expectations
and
learn to let go
of your feelings
before i turn away
not that you'd even
notice
in between words
