The Steps About You Poem by Hott Cuppid

Step1, Patience will you wait for me as I did for you
Not moving when you want to
Not screaming when you want to
My wants never outweighed your needs I listened to you even when you not speak

Step2, Think before you say your words to me
I thought a lot but this time I need more thinking
This time my age and mindset have caught up with each other
Don't worry I won't love another
Time has built up and finally, I'm tired
Don't talk it will make me fall asleep
But if you do I'll just dream

Step3, Understand me and understand you
I thought of every possibility and gave excuses to your weak efforts
You have not come to my maturity so I will lay in silence until you
Think about me listen to the way I breathe
I can't blame you for not responding to me
I'm thousand of years old and you're still watching me age while you bathe with everyone's youth
My voice now only speaks in whispers you do too you think I'm blind
But I've seen everything

Step4, Work in Silence
When everyone is quiet I will talk your stories sound like myths
I sit next to an empty chair it was still empty even when you were there
Don't look me in the eye your good at that
Keep talking while I'm not there
Silence is alright
I can work in silence

Step5, Keep calm
I'm driving and your holding a map with no directions it's alright I'll find a way
You're showing everyone else but me the people in the back who aren't even driving get to see
It's ok I will find a way
You make the roads not clear to see I won't ask you for help this time
I will find a way

Step6, Maybe I'm wrong
You're not in my time period so I will learn your ways and teach you mine
I taught you all I could and when tests came for you
You didn't try I tried to guide you but you didn't want to hold my hand
So I held it for you I tried and you didn't
You look at me as if I never tried
I'm not even tired
I'm exhausted

Step7, Realisation
I told you that problems will never be solved if you don't talk
I talked and talked you didn't talk so I tried to listen
I asked if I talked too much
And listened to you
I tried to apologise in every way
But I'm done now you must talk and reach for me
I'm not going to hold your hand
I will let someone else sit in your chair
Because you weren't there for me
