Talking back and forth
Only through poetry
Is terribly difficult when
You’re a better writer than me
You don’t have to believe what I said
You can think that I don’t feel the same
I just wish you knew it wasn’t true
But hey, I’m the one to blame
I am now and always
Exactly what you see
The big bad monster that
My actions have made me out to be
I pray that it cannot be
That it is not goodbye forever
But if this is how it ends
I wish you well in every endeavor
I shall carry on alone
Forever I will reserve
Waiting in anticipation
To get what I deserve
