Good Reasons for Spilling the Beans

 


Did you really think I could not see you


   watching me like that ..


Did you ever even stop to think I might


   not care at all ..


I am what I am and I’m sorry I can’t be


who or what


you want me to be, but listen, I am not


a plaything or


a fool, I can now see, exactly where you


   are coming from ..


Even when you were gone it seems you


were never


entirely alone, since you took most of


my good friends


along for a ride with you, big mistake babe


you just gave me

 

  good enough reason, to spill all the beans ..

Why the apology for being authentic? Reminded me about a bloke I met years ago. He wanted to change everything about me from the way I looked to the clothes I wore. I twigged eventually that he didn’t like the real me, so I dumped him.

I am feeling strong emotions with this write, lots of negative ones. This write feels menacing. Does spilling the beans add fuel to the fire or does it bring peace? Sometimes turning the other cheek has its merits. Retribution has a sour taste. Burn a candle for the hurt.

Good sunny morning Neville.

They are good reasons for self, well being is more important compared to being emotionally strung along.

It feels like such a hurtful betrayal. Strong write, Neville.
Sometimes the beans don't need to be spilled, they spill on their own in good time.

Creepy at first, felt a little threatening in the middle, apologetic, and then threatening again. You had me feeling all those emotions, Neville. :D
