PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I’m tired of the

back and forth

banter,

the pretending

Trust me, I’m

stepping over the line

Trust me, I’m

pushing the boundaries

brushing your back

with my fingertips

letting the earth

come crashing down

Another afternoon

another night

passes and I

forget my bag

of tricks and logic

stumbling blindly

into a room

where everything is

all too real.

And I want to scream at you

for not stepping

over the line-

just

trust me

But no, never mind

Back and forth

banter

Let’s just

pretend
