IT’S YOUR REJECTION THAT I FEAR
You posed your pose
Carried on with your prose
The cheeky chatter
This seemed to you to matter
There was nothing serious
You wanted and needed the dangerous
You called, you bawled
Your insecurities
You etchings, sketching’s
Planted and planned
Like a well-designed garden
Perfect, perfected
Yet to your world of perfection
This a cover for your rejections
The fear of fear
Critically critical
Of all relationships
Partnerships
Your losses hidden beneath
It’s your fear of rejection
That leaves me feeling rejected
Dejected to be part of your world
Your life
Where I feel no fear
But a determined, resolute
To guide and support you
In whatever it is that you need
Oh come on give this girl a chance
Take a chance
Make a stance
Not just a glance
