More than this (more of a monologue than a poem)

 

I see you trying but its not enough

I need more than this

You won't move an inch

So why get upset when someone else does?

Am I supposed to be content with your breadcrumbs forever?

 

Adults shouldnt have to be told how to behave

 

I never pretended that I would wait forever

And you never pretended to care
