First Base
Hi, hello, I'm not writing this to be cold or
condemning, considering I've politely
played by your rulebook since the beginning
Before you asked and i started giving.
Ive struck out twice, me the batter
and you the pitcher; in my foolish,
fumbled,and friendly attempts
To better understand the
image you present.
Seriously, please note i barley made
it to the fourth inning before,
you chose not to revise the words
you were sending.
They suddenly Slammed
me back to first base
eyes carelessly cartwheeling
In the story you
were spinning.
You typed me out like i was some
kinda naive second hand stalker,
while i was attempting
to be a silly sweet
smooth talker.
I've apologized post haste for my part
that left us in this awkward place.
I implore to articulate how do i wipe
the slate clean?
Just name the time and space
Where i can play my role to your pace
Id like to pleasantly convince you
That i clearly know my place.
