So, Tell me, What’s your Motive?

Dear O, it’s been five years. We keep zoning in and out of conversations like my network. A while ago, we had a history I wouldn’t let go of. Why would I? I worked too hard to have you. I was dying to show you my potential. I wanted to show you how much of a good catch I was. Hell, I was this close to kissing your ass. Did you know? One time, I almost fell from the stairs while staring at you. So, yes you were irresistible. You still are.

You know what they say about tables turning. It’s the fourth time this year. The fourth time you’re initiating a conversation first. The fourth time I’m not doing all the work. The fourth time I’m not getting all nervous. This time, I’m not straining to read in between the lines when you go through my timeline. I see the signs, yet I still don’t see them. They’re still not clear. Like I’m surprised. You’ve never been one to be bold. You stay in the shadows and you keep me guessing. Perhaps, it’s a Libra thing. Subliminal in approach. A pretty exhausting one if you ask me. So, I wonder, if you’re trying so hard to conceal your intentions, what is your purpose then?

You tell me things your girlfriend should know about, then you show her off for others to see. You know the extent of misdirection you could cause with your attendance, yet you unapologetically appear everywhere on my social space. You ask me questions that connect the dot, then you act like they're parallel. You want to stay, and you want to run. You want to chase without giving your prospects. So I ask you, what's your agenda? Some two-time to rock your world?

I get this funny feeling that you don’t know what you want or you do, but you’re just a sneaky little hot mess. If you know me, you would know that I read people like I garner knowledge. Effortless is my style. You know what that means? It means I see you. I feel you up close and personal. I know what you want. I know what you’re running from. So, what exactly are trying to hide?

All of your twisted moves don’t matter though. I’m obviously on top of your food chain, and I like it. I can tell that I move you because you keep coming around. You’re trying to keep it quiet. Why? Are you shy? How about you try me for a change? Test my waters and say the words. See if I’ll lead you on or not. Say what you’re trying to communicate, because you might just get it. While you’re gathering the courage, make your choices wisely. Do you want a trophy to flaunt for a minute or a game you want to bank on playing every time? How do you like the cards that I’m putting in front of you? Whatever position you’re going for, make up your mind. It better be right.
