Don't Assume 2

Don't assume we're ok.
Don't assume my anger has abated.
Don't assume my pain has faded.
Don't assume I know you're sorry.
Don't assume I don't need you to say something.
Don't assume the smile on my face is more than skin deep.
Don't assume this isn't about you... don't assume you can make that leap.
Don't assume my lack of comment means you're in the clear.
Don't assume that my walking away isn't near.
Don't assume the tear in my eyes are just from sorrow.
Don't assume that we'll just talk about it tomorrow.
Don't assume these bad rhymes are simply a joke.
Don't assume I won't give this bear but a poke.
Don't assume I won't be an ass.
Don't assume this will pass.
Don't assume a brief apology by text is all it will take.
Don't assume this outrage is but a fake.
Don't assume I want to move on... and 
Don't assume I won't let this rain on the fun.
The opera, the circus, the quad-friends, the workplace,
Don't assume anything, I can't promise it's the case.

Don't assume I no longer need you to say something.
Don't assume I'm no longer giving up on you.
Don't assume it's too late.  Don't assume that it's fate.

Don't assume I'll be here tomorrow... but also don't let that bring you to sorrow.
For everything in this world comes to an end... even the closeness you once may have called a friend.
