In & Out Poem by Brooke Peterson

In & Out



You came in, unwanted and new.
You came in, surprised you too.
You came in, too late for us.
You came in, thought it was lust.

I wanted you out, too late.
I wanted you out, but wait.
I wanted you out, then in.
I wanted you out, all over again.

I used to drive with the radio up.
I used to fill that f**kin cup.
I used to run to sweat it out.
I used this pen, instead of my mouth.

Thought a year, was enough.
Thought a year, was too much.
Thought a year, would be good.
Thought a year.....maybe I should?

But I'll just keep on doin'- what we do.
I'll just keep leavin- it up to you.
I'll just keep runnin my stupid mouth.
I'll just keep drivin- You Out.
