It’s like, I want to like you
But I just can’t seem to break though
This façade that’s been built into
Coat of armor I can’t seep through.
Don’t know why you’ve so rejected
My attempts to make connection
Only trying to be decent
And you’re left so unaffected;
Bound by something so important
Sense of self seems so discordant
With a truthful way of living
Painting some elaborate portrait,
Showing what is real for you
Depicting status to accrue
For someone’s standards, not sure who…
To carry onward in pursuit.
And I see all the ways we’re different
In our spirits and our interests
But soon we’ll be tied together
Even cordial has its limits.
So please, try a little harder
Promise I want be a bother
To your life and means and stature
If you do, we’ll both go farther.
