please don't be bored yet

We sit in what was once comfortable silence
And pretend to watch the TV
I act as if I don't know
You're getting bored of me

I can't keep conversation
And I can never crack a joke
So I try to fill the silence
But all it does is poke

Poke at you and your insecurity
And your paper thin resolve
So I leave a little early
And sometimes forget to call

But I don't want this to end
Because I've built myself a home
In this little corner of your heart
And I couldn't bear being alone

So please know I'm really trying
To keep you entertained
But if this falls to pieces
We both know I'm to blame.

A/N:
I wrote this in one sit down??? Finally I've found a way to not want to die while writing! Pls excuse the lack of punctuation and overall quality, I was going through it 😭
