Petty Fights

Akshay,
Won’t take my attitude,
Won’t text to me,
Won’t give me advice,
Not anymore

Akshay,
Hasn’t talked to me all day,
Hasn’t texted all day,
Hasn’t given me funny feelings,
Not today

Akshay,
Doesn’t know what to say,
Doesn’t want to advise,
Doesn’t want to talk,
Not now

Akshay,
Has his own life,
Has a real life,
Has an unshackled life,
Not like me

Akshay,
Tells me not to think like that,
Tells me to quit comparing,
Tells me there’s worse  out there,
So I’ll stop

Akshay,
Is only 16 hours away,
Is only a “wyd” away,
Is only a phone call away
