Do not approach me Do not talk to me I forbid you to so much as glance as me Don’t tell me about my sharp sense of humor Don’t tell me how I’m different from the others Don’t lay those precious blue eyes of yours on me Don’t tell me how you love me Do not waste your time with me, beautiful creature I am uninterested in a relationship Because nothing good lasts forever In this wretched world of ours I have no desire for this insanely obscure thing called love Not after the painful experiences I have suffered through A man, supposedly much wiser than I Once said it is better to have loved and lost Than to not have loved at all But this man has not seen the tears I have shed He has not witnessed the sleepless nights Kept awake with thoughts Of the beautiful moments we have shared He has not looked into those deep blue eyes- Oh those eyes! How they stare into the very essence of a man And he has not twirled her light brown hair in his fingers And surely, he has not heard her whisper softly Into his ear those three beautifully tragic words And even if he had, those words have not haunted him Rattling, Rattling, Rattling inside his head on a terrifying never ending loop I wish no part In your inexhaustible games You perplexing, manipulating, and devastatingly amazing being Keep your fucking distance woman!
