Yes You Are

When I politely disagree with you1

I'm lying.2

Yes, you are being unruly.3

'Where are you going?'4

'What time will it be over?'5

'You're not sneaking out to see HIM are you?'6

Yes, actually I am.7

I am a master of sneak,8

But I'm going to tell you that I am going to see him9

Especially since I go behind your back and see him all the time.10

Come on now.11

When have I ever done something like that?12

What happened to us?13

When you say I think you're being overprotective14

And I politely disagree15

I'm lying.16

Yes, you are WAY too overprotective.17

I was 15 years old and didn't have a curfew.18

Now, suddenly, in my last year of high school, 19

I have to call you when I get where I am going20

When I am leaving21

And several times in between, just for good measure.22

WHAT IS GOING ON?!23

I don't know this person24

That has taken over your body cavity,25

But I don't like them.26

I want them to go away so that my freedom can come back27

Because this new you,28

Scared it away. Possibly for good.29

So please, go away.30

Let the old you come back, because we ALL MISS IT.
