Putative
I thought about calling you tonight. Despite your putative gruffness, I knew you’d be there if I needed you. I wanted to tell you, but I hung up the phone. I just couldn’t do it.
These feelings for you. They rush right through me and consume me. I can’t tell anymore. Is it a crush or something real?
Do you feel the same? I can’t imagine you do. You keep everyone at arm’s length. Not letting anyone close, but at the same time I know I’m welcome in your basement anytime. Tell me, Is it a crush or something real?
