Newton’s 3rd Law

From now on, all you are to me

Is an application of Newton's 3rd Law.

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction,

And one day you'll have to learn

That the only way people will put effort into you

Is if you also put effort into them.

I won't disrupt the balance of forces

By being the one who bothers enough

To make every initial attempt at acceleration,

And if the result is static equilibriumThen so be it.
