Annoyance

I feel like writing...

I see her name appear,

"She is online"

...

I hope she doesn't,

she does...

"Masonnnnnnnn,"

she says to me.

I respond,

"hi."

"How are you?"

she asks.

I respond,

"fine..."

But I don't want to be rude,

"...you?"

She's great,

She thinks it's great,

that I'm fine...

A sigh escapes my lips,

My mind filled,

Fluttering with the word;

"Great..."

I repeat to myself,

that word...

Growing duller and duller,

It sounds so insincere...

Sarcasm; my weapon,

and if her mind be hers,

Growing duller and duller,

I swing and miss...

As if trying to hit a drunk man,

but he keeps falling over...

Yet, here I am,

feeling hungover...

I know why...

I sympathize...

But, still...

She's such an annoyance...

... some of us find it so impossible to be impolite even though we're unable to deal with repeated intrusions ... i so know what this is about ... and i think you did an absolutely brilliant job of expressing it ... the flow of this verse is just so stupendous ... and the image is crystal clear ... awesome ...

If I say this is a great poem, will you think of it as sarcasm? Anyways, I still think it is. Specifically, I like the idea embedded in here that goes beyond simple online conversation. It's sad but it is indeed true that on more than one occasions, we'd rather choose to be polite than to be honest. I guess it's part of the norm.

Keep Writing. ^___^

I love the way you told this. It's sad (and somewhat amusing) how much it reminded me of my ex-fiance when he couldn't be bothered with me. And I agree with your views on "great". Depending on who's saying it and how, but it's true in general. This had a nice flow and good rhyme. Nice job.

1: Mixed emotions, Zoe?
2: Oh yeah, I see what you meant now...But no I just really don't want to talk to her at all xD
I understand why she tries. She likes me, and I don't like to discourage her but it's still just so annoying...
Serah: Thank you for your review, I appreciate it ^^
Dying: Thank you, as well. I'm glad you liked it.

I don't know- it's how I could relate to the poem. That person I am reluctant to talk to, but in the back of my mind maybe I subconsciously do. Maybe not your intent in this write, but that is how the words personally spoke to me. When I said mixed emotions i meant that is what i felt while reading it. Otherwise, your emotions were quite obvious and well stated.

very quirky with mixed emotions. I could relate to this piece.
