man


so this is my blog about you
the one that you asked me to write

what do i say
especially knowing that you'll read it
i'm already blocked
like you're standing over me

that other one i wrote
about that guy
it came out so freely because i knew he'd never see it

well...
you asked for it

i think you're a good man
a great man even
but i always felt that you weren't my man
or the right man for me

but maybe thats because i'm a boy
pretending to be very grown up
but a boy none the less
and you need a man

a man you can boss around
and be grumpy at
slam the door and squeal off down the street with a carafe
you need a man who doesn't bruise
look at me hard and my arm blackens
like a little boy

i have tantrums
like a boy
so when you gave me the ultimatum
i hit the deck
punched and kicked the floor
and told you to leave

so you did

but i'm not that vain
to think
the decision was mine
you knew what was right for you
and you did it

i know you did the right thing
even if i'm left here twiddling my thumbs
writing the odd blog 
facebooking
facebooking

i'm glad you're gone
i feel like we're friends now
i think about you unselfishly now
and want the best for you 

like a man
