Phone call very anticipated
that seems to go along with
the sand in your eyes
elementary school disappointment
Don't get me wrong
I expected you to respond in such a manner
for it's as predictable as the sun rises and sets
yet for some crazy reason
I held the razor- thin hope
that today might be different
Today you would own your shit
forgive and forget
and appreciate the bigger picture
even if it meant
having to swallow the goldfish
against your better judgment
but it went something more like this...
but...
wait...
hold on a sec...
