You Started It

Come to think of it
You started it all
Now what am I? Chopped meat?
Stalled at the gate? incomplete?

Come to think of it
I should've known I'd get smoked,
That you'd eat me for breakfast.
Romantic? Perhaps. Definitely reckless.

If it was a trap,
It wasn't elaborate.
Did you set it up?
Did I collaborate?
You froze my half-empty cup
Beat me up, beamed me up.

'I really don't know how I stay in one piece'
You sighed
As I talked about the weather.
I never did find out what held you together.

Remember when I said 'I want to make them cry'?
Well these days I'd be happy to raise a smile.

Yes....that would make it all worthwhile.
