She is done, done.

She has realized what just happened and is hurt.

She is done with fooling around and wants their relationship to end.

She is acting like she can relate, but she knows she is hurt.

He is trying to express that he only has eyes on her, this may have taken him by surprise.

He does not hide it because he does not really care.

She is confronting him on an issue that is bothering her.

This is a 1900's type of theme, he is comfortable where he is and they are adults.

She is being dangerous and she knows it. He is distracted by what he has done or what he is about to get into.

She is not innocent either, they match each others ideals.

That is a classic look that people try to imitate so she cant help but go back.

Their love never fades so you just reuse is just like when clothes never go out of style you keep it.

Whenever they breakup they get back together because they love each other.

Again with her red lip classic, she is making a Grease image.

She is with a "greaser" type of dude. Her relationship is classic, which makes it hard to let go.

This is a commonly used phrase, comparing love to a merry go round, which is jolly and fun until you have to pay again.

She thinks he is the same .She has bee extremely judgmental.

She knows where this is going. Is the love really worth it Taylor? Why does she keep letting this happen? She may just like the exhilarating feeling.

She puts an emphasis on it, she might be the side chick.

She always acts like they are an old friend, or he has been distant. AS a joke.

Time seems to be passing fast while they are together so it is fading. Time flies when your having fun.

He got her out the house just to see her, its the same scenario with every boy. It could be a sad or crazy ending.

She is sneaking out really late because her parents are strict, or he just popped up for fun. They are probably teenagers.

He is now just using compound conjunctions to flatter the listener, or again this is showing his progress.

Until he find somebody new, or the last person comes around.

This feeling is temporary, at least for until he feels that thing he escaped coming back around.

He is imagining falling into this persons arms when he close his eyes, acting like it is a day dream.

He does this to keep himself for crying, or to act like he is somewhere else as a coping mechanism.

He is using the same line but changing the end, without his love the things he has escaped is re-surfacing.

It has been some time so he has forgotten the feeling, but is chasing it.

He says these things backwards to the first time, I feel this is for hearing appeal, or this could be his way of showing the progress he is going through; how his views have changes and the order of importance.

The all or nothing must have not been worth it.

Has he lost everybody being with this person?

Where the title comes into play, he does need this affection at the moment, it matters where the affection and support comes from. If this person were to offer it would he take it? Does he really know what he needs?

He was not "kinda" he was used. He is trying to shake it off like it was nothing

Pulling a rug from under something causes destruction or grave injury. This person might as well have done so.

He took the trust out of him to believe in this person.

Why would he expect the person that caused the pain to be there for him? Is heartbreak his only pain? Is he playing victim to this breakup?

He really "needs" this person with him to feel ok. It is almost like he feels they should feel obliges to be there for him.

The day feels the same as night, it is fading not just day and night.

The day is painful the same way bleeding is an occurrence from injury.

He says I guess to be sly but he knows not guess. This lover made him feel better, made him forget all his trauma or pain.

Even when it occurs again it will never be the same for him., or the other if they are getting back together.

These type of things are easier said than done.

this connection is romantic

He does not really need them but he is so broken he is convinced that he does.

He needs somebody that he gets to know, something to fill his "blank space" lol.

Not he wants but needs somebody to work on, or he has nothing.

He was in a relationship of some sort whether it be family or lover, and they no longer love him.

He put his all into this relationship and again, it did not work.

He has been saved before and he holds onto the feeling of happiness with a person.

He is not literally going under but is falling into a depression

for him

A bouquet of affection for him.

Their days are getting worse.

Se is staying with him and that is settled.

This poem is in fact about urban lovers literally.

A tenderloin is what I would relate to a steak...but they are enjoying a stroll through the city as lovers perhaps?

Their culture still being around.

The temporary pleasures

They had so much going for them, but the inevitable got to them.

The drugs got the best of them, the city got the best of them and they failed.

That is either a stereotype, or someone's name. It is a stereotype to call females of Chinese decent " Ling Ling".

I feel as if she is referring to cocaine, a powder white substance, done a lot in the city.

Drugs are commonly found in the city.

This is a metaphor, prophets are biblical figures from God.

This is a immigrant, they are experiencing this for the first time, it is movie like.

She is using Golden Mountains in comparison to the Golden Gate Bridge. Both having paths

All of the above famous cities that are commonly visited first.

Why does she refer to a river? Is their some country inside joke here?

This person has moved to the city, that is why they're out of place.

I heard yellow is a rich color in China, this could be her asking a poor person who they were raised by, literally.

This person is out of place, or at least they feel as if they are.

Breaking the ice, getting to know someone.

That Gingko bark is nothing compared to what has arrived, and Gingkos are highly durable

This is referring to something small in this matter compared to something in a big city.

I heard a rumor that Chinese city air is often horribly polluted, to polluted to straight-up breath

Both things can survive atrocities.

Do not fall ill to nightly doings, it will mess it up for the rest of them.

Make their paying rent worth it, asking kindly to mind their business.

It cost to be like that, to be human.

The pleasant things come out once in a while.

This person is stuck up. She calls the building stiff, but it is also weak in certain places like a dowager.

Somebody is doing the impossible. Or maybe she is referring to Asian culture of sumo-wrestling. The inevitable or somebody speeding it up.

She is maybe talking about herself, or people being stubborn.

She is in an apartment with a bamboo plant, she is for some reason stating the obvious.

She does not need his knowing to be real, he ca lie to her.

She really lies being remembered in a good light.

She just wants them to remember.

She never leaves them, they leave her.

She doing something with finesse.

They are going to be all over each other.

He will look back and remember.

After their last kiss, as far as we know she has the same request for him.

She knows how to live in the moment and take it all in.

Their connection makes her feel like she has known him forever. She always says something about her boys are familiar and this is why.

They shared a night or day together.

She wants their deeds to be unknown.

She is saying wildest dreams because wild dreams happen by chance. She does not care when, where, or how as long as it happens. She cannot get this message across enough.

She does not care for him to see her literally, but she likes to be remembered and scattered in somebodies head.

She knows all her love is doomed, but she wants to see them again.

Red is a color of passion, and red lips is a staple for her. This is what she wants people to remember her as.

This is a lollygagging song, a happy euphoric feel.

She wants him to remember her, for her beautiful appearance, if not anything.

She has one rule and she will be happy.

This is just another love story.

Just like in blank space, she repeats her love for a stereotype.

She is a girl so this is probably very hard to resist, she is making his appearance out.

She is fine with the temporary pleasure.

She is like wow I am really about to do this.

Taking a break from people, a wild vacation perhaps.

This is a love song probably about their "wildest dreams" and that is why it starts out with them skipping town. Also known as running away from their problems.

Wild dreams are fictional and usually someone's deepest desire.

The shot was successful.

He has failed and is very patriotic to basketball.

The man fell

One of the teams were successful.

Somebody is probably shooting their shot again

Time has sped up this happened quickly. This was a major play.

It was a referee who did this, but he made a mistake.

Their foul play was detected.

These lines were being filled in an orderly fashion.

They are in a stadium so it is a ticket game.

They are breaking the rule of traveling, this may not be professional.

As a team people have to think with one mind, they are all familiar with each other.

This is a strategic play. This could b representing a group families way of working as a team, or a group in general.

This player is observant and knows that slow and steady wins the race.

The flying represents freedom, these are grown men professionals.

This other player is new, this may be what the scissoring foreshadowed.

This defender was taken by surprise, this is a slowed down detailed basketball game, it seems.

These are experienced players. Can scissoring be the foreshadowing of something falling apart?

This is most definitely a basketball game. Is the underhand pass significant?

I am now confused of the standpoint. Is this a basketball game? Is this a Mental game?

Is this a bowling reference? Is this entire poem metaphorical?

Foreshadowing this being a special moment for the player. Why is this possession so important to where it needs to be treasured?

He is descriptive of the basketball, intensifying the moment.

His next move was done with precision.

The jumper is either gang as in a homey, or he is lanky.

Time is frozen in this moment, the word helplessly gives sympathy to the shooter.

A basketball reference? He uses the word kiss so it delicately touches it. This sets a relaxing mood for the poem.

Break fast backwards, breakfast is based off these two words. A quick gap in between time of an action

She is saying boys not men so she has no respect for males in general, unless they are most definitely men.

She is warning any males or female of what is to come with them if the are in a relationship with any boys.

Her view on love has not changes, she finds love to be horrible until it is not.

She is sweet and fun, until she is bothered.

She is toxic, she knows what she has laid out is addictive. Notice she says "each time" as in this will happen again.

There is someone else grasping his attention, she is infuriated like a horse that has been abused.

This validates the fact that he will not recognize this other side of her.

He is not going to recognize this side of her.

She is pretty like a rose garden garden, but if you take the wrong step you will get pricked. As in she is going to traumatize him, leaving scars that may never leave.

All that good that was there, is gone. Her fair is now foul, and her foul fair. She has switched roles with him.

Domestic abuse that is perfect because she is causing them.

She is like "man, I really have to do this again".

This is the turning point, she has found something bad enough to grab the matches.

She is catfishing him emotionally, and physically

She just wants him as an experience, she does not truly care. Perhaps her character is Bi-Polar.

Giving me much Macbeth, Lady Macbeth vibes. She is down down like marriage down.

He is stealing her kisses, which cannot be given back. His lies are pretty to her because of her view on him.

She is living in her own bubblegum fantasy world. No wonder if he interferes with this she will go crazy on him.

This entire situation could scar him for life, mentally.

She wears red lipstick, which can cause her lips to be the first thing you see- purposely.

When she goes into the friendships/relationships she is ten toes down serious.

The blank space referred to in the title, is most definitely in her heart. Just because she could find it.

He is going to be taken back by her "insanity", or he will be taken down in love.

She is again speaking for both of them. She is going to take this far, he may not.

She is taking up for him to, he is not speaking for himself. This reveals her views on their age.

She is adding on to why her ex's call her insane. She has been hurt deeply.

Is she not the real player? Was she originally a pawn? Is she doing this to manipulate him? Is she lying and playing victim?

She was not joking when she said things will go down in flames, these men must really break her heart.

This is most definitely not her first rodeo, this is why she is prepared and knows what is going to happen.

She is guilt tripping him.

She is letting him break it off because she does not want to, or does she? Him breaking it off would give her the perfect excuse to light a fire.

If it ends at all, she is going to make it horrible.

That is one of her desires, deep down.

This is a male, she knows he is not the ideal guy, because he is bad.

They have a lot of money, or at least she does.

She usually finds herself disappointed in relationships.

She is not looking for a lover, but a friend.

She is known by a lot of people , so that is why she assumes he knows her.

She is known, and she has probably heard about him and that is why she can read him like a magazine.

This person is stereotypical, in her head.

This person is pristine, not average.

It is no that serious to her, she is giving me Daria vibes. Like wanna play, hm?

This other person is taken by surprise, she is reminding me of the jack of all trades. Almost that princess in the frog hand shake: "you got what you wanted, but you lost what you had", that type of creepy but tempting feeling.

She is one of the people who look at love as if it it just something to do. She is not in it for a long time, but a good one.

She knows this is going to end badly, she has been through this cycle before, and she does not care because she likes the feeling.

As if she has found a lost friend, or she finds this person very attractive.

This is a person who caught her eye, she found them. She is in the dominant role, that is probably why she is saying all this. I believe we are in her head, that she is not saying all this, but this is what matters.

Their is a plethora of things on her plate of discovery. This other person is in for a ride, if they take the offer.

The feeling like your meeting a new friend in kindergarten. Her confidence is at a high, so she has done this before.

This is something she is doing herself, it is a lover or friend of some sort.

She has found someone who feels familiar, Like a family member you see in public, that type of feeling. Or she has found someone in that "where have you been all my life" context.

She is creating a feeling as if she is talkin to someone new, literally. Who is you, does gender matter, could this be with anyone?

An emptiness she has within her, most likely in her brain or heart.

She is worth a million dollars.

The use of rhyme gives a classic rhythmic tone, almost indie like.

Nothing has prepared the audience of herself for the intensity of her performance. There is no V.I.P to to her show.

She lives a private life and her only audience were probably walls.

She lacks the grace and femininity due to her lacking the access to male support. Why does she say a man specifically?

You do not need to be perfect to put on a show, a little means a plethora of things.
