Need I Say More...

You can choose to pick and peck,
Your petty indifferences with me.
But the way I see it from my perspective,
Is this...
I am not the one threatening to foreclose,
On your home to leave you homeless.
Nor did I loan you any money at all,
To finance a car you can not make installments.
And neither am I,
One of your many creditors...
Attempting to repossess those standards you value.

When I walked away from those agonies,
Those friends I had...
Also quickly left.
And you wish to approach me with your pettiness?
I suggest,
You take me off of your priority list.
And find someone else,
To play 'your' games of reality with.

Remember you told me this...
'You ain't got nothing that would interest me.
You just another broke...'

Need I say more...
Before I go?
And I am glad I am of no interest to you.
And please...
Stop reminding me.
