Saying Nothing Says Something

I am not surprised to relearn
That you find it easier to avoid anything that causes you discomfort
So I'm curious about the intention
Of revisiting that lesson
I never questioned it
But thanks for the answer I guess

Was this some sort of subtle cryptic message that I'm meant to dissect?
The wordless cues that I'm meant to interpret
Because you can't be bothered to say what's on your mind
As usual
I remember when I was cool with that
Because I thought I got things right
You wanted me to believe that too
Till you felt like showing me I was wrong
I've been a disappointment to myself
For all the times I tried
One more disappointment from you
Would have nothing on that
But since you lacked heart
You couldn't touch mine

With no offer of open honesty
You feed me crumbs of definition
Nothing I can feel
Because my apatite is bigger than that
It always has been
I'm starved of truth
I am hungry for action
Real action
And actual words

If you still rely on store bought ingredients
And haven't learned to grow your own
I assume authenticity will get lost on you
When you try to concoct your recipes
And if really nothing was on your mind
And all you felt like doing was wasting time
If you can conveniently forget
And could care less about my thoughts and feelings
Well
That's what I thought but
Thanks for finally telling me
The only worthwhile thing you've indirectly said
