Getting to Enjoy the Space

However you say it...
Do not make attempts,
To intoxicate me.

Deliver it to me straight,
No chaser!
Or an added twist of anything.

We have been here too many times before!
And by the time you are through,
Beating around the bush...
I am finding more space between us.

And caring less,
How much wider it gets...
Before it is decided we are no longer,
Significantly in a relationship!

Especially when I am quite familiar
With your routines.
And getting to enjoy the space!

Please don't make me choose between the two.
