Without Me.

When I said
"Go ahead
Without me"
That was not
A proposal
I'm not offering ideas to the group
For you to chew
For you to scoop up
And think about
It was rather a request
Now, do I have to shout?

You value loud times
I see that
I'll grudge you nothing
Now see that
I, in truth, value solitude
And before you presume
A teenage, sullen attitude
I'll just let you think about
How ridiculous that would be
Now see
And go ahead
Without me
Please
