You must be new here
....Have you met a stranger?
Have you become too friendly or let people close too soon?
Have you no boundaries?
What's it going to take for you to see?
Not all smiles are for you to be happy.
Not all small talk is for you to speak.
Not everybody who wants you around cares if you want company.
It's found in strangers.
The awkward moments the lack of manners.
the Ego stroking replace of your energy.
Lessons learned from the fakes foe woe.
Pretending to care til no more dares.
No calls or visits
Just a replacement homegirl for the rest of the day to call out the game
No rules just yet.
You might regret.
