We’ve been talking about getting together for years
but it never seems to get anywhere.
We continue to act
like we’re friends
but we never actually act on that friendship.
We are posers
I think
and will not do
what we claim to want.

And maybe I’m putting thoughts in your head
or words in your mouth
or motives into your mind,
I don’t know
but I’m pretty sure
that I’m describing myself accurately
and I think it applies to you, too.

We keep thinking
about what we should do
but we seem to never do it.
