I want to say no to him
Because he has the feeling that all
Will say yes to him. He’s beautiful and tall,
And neither a woman, nor a man,
Can describe him; if you knew
Him for a minute, you would want to hold him, too.
But I don’t think his kind
Deserves to be happy. I feel kind
Towards him, but I hate him, too.
He confuses me, and I think this has probably happened to you:
Jealousy makes you hate what you should love.
But since love is unwise, isn’t it? you trust what combats love
Even if you begin to doubt yourself, and you don’t know
What in the world you need to feel.
Is God, and the stupidest emotions elicited by God, equally as real?
I see it in my thoughts, wherever they go.
I want to make him miserable. Watch me, friends!
I will say no, I will say no, I will say no.
He will see me proud in my new shoes. He will know how the story ends.
