ten years too slow, ten years too late 💜

Ten years of silence, not a word,

now you're sending reels, how absurd,

didn't have the time back then,

funny how you found it again.

Said you never watched my stories,

now you're first in all my glories,

viewing everything I post,

baby I thought your style was to ghost.

Liking this and liking that,

pretending we were just like that,

holding conversations, acting keen,

where was this fascination since we were fifteen?

I tried to find us common ground,

you couldn't even look around,

now you're interested in my taste,

ten years too slow, ten years too late.

You had a plan, a great big one,

things to do and heights to run,

I remember very well you see,

I was nowhere in that plan sweetpea.

So what went wrong with the grand design,

did it not work out quite so fine,

did the great plan lose its way,

and now you're here in my DMs today.

Tell me what you're looking for,

tell me what you came back for,

be specific,

so I know,

exactly what to

never give you again.

he said it so casually:

"hope you didn't plan something"

like a man

who prays for his destruction with this kind of nonchalance.

he was "managing" my expectations,

he was being "considerate",

the cool boyfriend

who doesn't make a fuss.

and somehow I happened to be an innocent bystander,

in my own relationship,

I did not know I was in,

oblivious to an anniversary day,

this "nonchalant" man was reminding.

what is a girl to do,

when a man

is being very cool,

about something

she didn't know

existed?

honestly how does he not know,

my type is very chalant?

dear apparent lover,

next time you want to be nonchalant

about us,

make sure I know

there's an "us"

to be nonchalant about.
