a clam cracked open

you want the commitment,
you want to be loved -
though, you need to know me,
in order for this to work out.

i need to be free,
to not clutch my wings,
do you understand me?
that's all that i need.

don't keep me updated,
don't share any words,
i'm easily bored,
that's all that i want.

shut up, keep it quiet.
don't say anything more.
i'm not interested 
in none of your lore.

move on, just accept it,
i wont always be there,
as you're deciding 
what to reply with.

but would you change your history?
would you do the impossible,
or continue to bore me?
