I called your bluff
Took a pull and one big puff
Because out of lack of words we were just cool n’ stuff
But for a popular guy it’s safer to play tough
Like my gentle touch and love wasn’t enough
Our life was like a chess board, white and black
Hot and cold spaces and lines that neither of us could cross
Words and promises that were lost
One big coin toss
And I was just
Lost
Because all I’ve ever hoped for was heads, and you...
I guess I’d have to say some tail
While we chat about unimportant details and send semi-casual emails
Until our boats drifted and set sails to opposite destinations
My heart longing for your reciprocation
Only to be greeted by coldness and constant defecation
My love was on probation for a crime I didn’t commit
Or one I’d like to forget
For a dude who was legit,well...
Maybe
May he
Love me despite my flaws
I’ve waited at closed doors, in the cold with no answer
But he was home
Struggling and surviving on past years and old dates
When you dish dirt its hard to stomach your own plate
But don’t deal facades you can’t live with
So when you’re ready to conform
I’ll be ready and waiting with two words
Check
And
Mate
