I am the biggest jerk ever...

... news at 11.

{sigh}

I am so sorry... to both of you.

Would you?

If I quoted the right thing
bantered back and forth (meaningless)
and told you I was giggling on my end

If I didn't ask about the dishes
kept my mouth shut (with a smile)
and pretended I didn't care

If I hadn't learned your every inch
remained a mystery for your mind to form (unknown)
and kept myself from you like treasure

If I were just out of reach
connected only through keyboard (fantasy)
and phoned you late at night with gentle voice

If I hadn't given you what you asked for
withheld my bliss and sorrow from you (deception)
and watched you fall, alone

Then, would you truly want me?
