Please, can't you say it?
I'm tired of guessing.
Why skip around the truth
Rather than outright admitting it?
We dance like fireflies
Flying around
Not hitting the mark
But making a dent
Making a sound.
Please just say what we're thinking
Please, I beg you.
I promise we feel the same way.
I promise I won't judge you.
I guess I've been thinking
The story mountain we made
And the characters didn't even get their lives told
Because ours crashed and burned before we could handle it
Nope
I'm not going back to school.
I'm going to ignore the back-to-school ads
And shopping trips
The packing
The new outfits
The brand-new pencils
I won't do it
Noise
Warming up
Keys
Fingerings
Chatter
Laughter
The chorale
Stopping
Starting
"Again"
"I know you can do better than that"
Serious but
You also love it
