Analysis of Misleading

john coss 1987 (ohio)



Trying To Date

Let’s talk for a week,
let’s snap for a week.
 I make you feel good,
then you stop never wished you would.

Let's keep chatting and make moves,
two hearts play tunes.
let’s not take a break,
Unlike you I am not a fake.

I can make you feel loved,
I am not into games but then you pushed and shoved.
I can make you feel wanted,
I am not a baseball you bunted.

Treat me right and nothing in between,
I will treat you like a queen.
I am not here for a short time,
Unlike two nickels equal a dime.

I don’t know how to date,
 My heart will never break.
Maybe fresh clips,
And fire because of the lies you spew from your lips.

You expect me to wait,
I only wanted you to date.

For something that may never happen,
My heart may never be done scrapping.
