Not Anymore...

honestly, i like to speak
speaking had long been my past time and i supposed
i have mastered the art of nice conversations where i am not really involved myself.
honestly i like to speak with you and have fun with words, taking games with
accents and twists of wits and
tits,
nothing to spit, just little glitz in finches
honestly i love dialogues but i was once betrayed by your own words and when i was about to take complete action, enforcement or preventive or otherwise
you raised your voice, and arms and blocked my hands
and i was feeling so helpless and made a promise to myself never again shall i
interfere in your affairs
now you are back with some instructions and i told myself this is a toad
this is a horrible snake a killer shark and i pretend that i have no
conclusions

all i can say, perhaps, or maybe
tomorrow or just another day, just wait
but deep within i say

i quit.
