contrivance

I repeated myself because I didn't think you heard me. It didn't take long to realize your elevated expectations.  I answered all your inquiries, even though they seemed strange. I knew you would wilt if exposed to truth, so there were no questions as to your intentions. I watched your reality play out. Again you dismissed my reaction. Now I'm expected to relate to you. After you've shifted the topic three times away from the original conversation.  You wave the wand of approval to anyone who reacts to your emotional contrivances.  Still you wait for me to react to such nonsense. 


It's not what you think it's what you believe.  Patricia '96
