Everyone wants to hear about the beginning
the mystery, the intrigue
the Chinese whispers of who likes who
the confessions
cheeks stained red
All there is is hope and possibility
Most people want to hear about the middle
the romantic plot
the hugs and kissing
knowing looks
Everyone wants to know:
"Have you done it?"
But not about your whispered fights
that "she just wont communicate"
said in 10 different ways
That you cried yourself to sleep over it but still smiled when you saw her in the morning
Some people want to hear about the nature of the end
Only looking for a headline
they only want the who said what's
not the longing, the wanting
clinging onto every word they say, and every word they don't
They only want to say "plenty of fish in the sea"
pat you on the back
and then analyse your every move for your next beginnings and middles
so they can have more to gossip about
All there is is longing and tears
and other people with their own beginnings and middles
wait till they find out the end.
Notes
Had to lie down before my German speaking exam as was feeling ill. ugh. I quite like this one.
