I think you thought you knew me all too well,
---and this was getting confusing
You were confusing fixation with infatuation,
---and we were amateur impressionists who didn't blend in
We were wallflowers growing toward all our own cracks and fissures,
---and intertwining with each other
I stopped saying goodbye to you
because I assumed we both had reservations up there,
---and he stopped with the advanced bookings long before our time
Why is it that they told us to know better?
When we don't know from anything else.
So you could just take that and stick it,
---stick it in here where we were good and done
aggressively emotional, although a bit incoherent. The author's relationship to his or her counterpart / audience is confusing. I get a very fiery feeling, especially with the concluding punctuated line. There is definitely finality in your tone, but what has actually transpired leaves me a bit clueless. In other words, the emotion feels real, but it is being directed in many different places as descriptions jump across a wide spectrum of metaphors that seem disconnected and a bit tangential. But perhaps this piece is supposed to feel like a therapeutic outpouring of all the places one's mind can go when overcome with emotion.
