Ode to the Fool, I


You will not break me.
I won't let your teasing tempting overtake me.
Don't be so quick to call my soul your own,
I'm not sure you're worthy of the loan.

Intentionally mislead me,
Smile, pretend to need me.
You seem to think I'll always be waiting,
As if I'll ever respond to your baiting.

Reach into my breast to steal my heart,
Look it over, tear it apart!
Selfish little boy,
When will you realize that I am real, and not your toy?

You think I'm just your little game
Turn me on, turn me off, and it will all be the same?!
You only want me when you're lonely,
To that I say "fuck you." I'm looking for a one and only.
