I liked you slightly
And the feeling was exhilarating
Though over time
Your light grew dimmer with the pressures gaining
Just right behind you
threatening your fragile pride
So the fallow seed of friendship
laid there dormant for a time
Some saw harassment
Saw the inclement disaster churning
I failed to pacify your anger
That was deeply burning
Though, still I mused about you
hanging by my side
Yet that choice was punitive
There was danger in you eyes
You tried to redress
all the sour feelings in the air
I waited for you
Showing off how much I didn't care
There were no others
That would put up with your selfish flare
I was the only one
But you made me tear out my hair
The conversation
Filled with negligible banter
I wanted more
You'll never fathom what I'm after
My heart left sore
You cursed me with condemning laughter
Your craven fears prevented me from ever staying near
