Is it Too Soon to be Annoyed

Is it too soon to be annoyed with you
You wanted me to hold you accountable
Requested good morning and night texts
Yet for you that action appears surmountable

Is it that you want the attention
But aren’t as authentically interested in me
Could it be that you’re too busy dating Amanda
On a family vacation in Kauai

Different time zones I understand
You’re going to bed later I’m waking up sooner
But what I don’t get is how you leave me on read for hours
Leaves me wondering if the “ex” part is just a rumor

Want to make me feel special
Start showing interest in my life
You don’t ask questions to get to know this soul
Yet you’ve essentially offered for her to be your wife

Said your dad and sister the ones who wanted to bring her
As if you had to have your leg pulled to agree
You weren’t going to tell me you went on a date with her before leaving
You didn’t tell me the full truth of your intertwined, trauma bonded reality

I’m not saying anyone with old attachments still present
You’re not my partner or boo thang
You’re a young boy I’ve met for 2 days
And who doesn’t understand my desired power exchange

These poems serve two purposes… 1) The clarity they provide me. And the greatest reason I feel compelled to share.. 2) For you to experience the “we.”
