The Unspoken Game of Push and Pull

The Unspoken Game of Push and Pull

i like when you speak, so i listen to you 

but, when you iterate the story 
of the boy that wanted to pick up broken glass, 
of the girl that did not hold the right age or class 

i don’t enjoy it 
so, i throw a fit 

i freeze and force to stay behind the door
but, i still hear you dance on the wooden floors

the game of push and pull is keeping up the queue

so, in all glory
let’s hop on first class
to forget the matter and the mass

of the words i never admit 
that combine with actions we never commit 

and i know you keep wanting more 
but, there’s nothing left to adore 

to mourn over what fell through 
between me and you
