Some people love themselves so much, that the presence of another has very little meaning. |
We need to have a talk About the things you do, You push yourself As noiseless elf Into my life! I'm through! You say I have a say, That is not what I see You say, "I'm best!" Without a test And never shall it be! Your face is in my face I have no place to flee! You make me look My freedom took And gave sad life to me! Please go away from here And let another come, The truth is seen You're really mean The whole, not just the sum! Whatever shall I do? For no defense is mine The rules will let You make the bet And steal the truth in line! But one thing I do know, That when the time is right I have a friend Who will yet win I'll need not ever fight! "Do tell how this can be?" I will not tell you, yet, For when the time Is in its prime You'll know without a bet! "How did you become mad?" I'll bet you'd like to know, I lose and lose Without my choose, And still you will not go! "You're grammar is unhinged!" Is that the only part? I see your face Without a trace Of leaving from the start! You think I should love you! You really are convinced! Mosquitoes poke! It's not a joke! Your stare has never winced! But one day I'll be gone! I doubt that you will know! Your mirrored face all o'er the place Will love you then, I trow! The love you have, it seems Is really just yourself, For I am here, But it is clear, I'm just your noiseless elf! by Jay O'Toole on August 4, 2016 |
