"pretend" introducing "step"

A story in poem form...........and Another sassy talk series addition

oh..i see,
 you want me to pretend...
that my heart is ooh "just fine"

and that in you all i will need i will i will find...
...never mind pressing rewind
just stay with me here in this here time
you must think i'm made of stone
well, you're not my chisel

i need time
i will take time
regardless of the time you think i should be healed in...
....i'm not a "robot"
i am not going to follow your commands

'you walk on water...
then, i will be quick to jump and follow
nope,

i don't think you can do that,

so i'll keep praying to Him for direction

the time i need is His anyhow, not yours not even mine

if you could only understand
that underneath this low hat...and this low fade
resides feelings

there are even some residing for you...
...but you steady stressing me
is only giving me the impression that you' testing me

i'm a smart kid;always have been
so know i won't be studying for your test

[call that what you may]

i'll remain strong and honor what "I" need

you say you're about to walk away.
then step........

me and my heart, see..
we were already prepared for goodbye;i told YOU so.

i won't go to war alone
but i won't be needing your weapons

that's dangerous territory
and i knew it from the beginning
i try to believe in second chances..
ha, well i'm done being that fool

i know you'll go off and be with some other fool
and that's okay with me..there "is" other food to feast

and i'll wait for the next entree...

nope,

that's not the one i want.....

....i believe

i'll step too...

First of all, I love the format of this poem. I quickly noticed how nice the format is. Second, this poem (I wanted to say "song") - well, it reads like a conversation and almost as lyrics. I really like the line: "you say you're about to walk away.
then step........" Such a boldness and holding back no punches. Nice to say how you feel!!!!
