your idle chat infuriates me
i invested in you
i took a small piece of my heart
and quietly embedded it into yours
so tiny that i'm sure you could hardly feel it
resting there
waiting patiently for a call to action
a reason to grow
but when you told me your truth
(days after i had told you mine)
i could feel the tiny shard tugging at my side
trying to work it's way out
but just getting stuck
the way something becomes wedged between your teeth
or caught on a thread
tangled by your jaw's resolve
Pleasantly productive

Those first four lines are absolute magic. Perfectly sums it up. xk
