For Me?
Could you ever love me for me?
Could you take my faults in stride?
Could you ever go a day without criticizing me?
Probably not.
Could you ever love me for me?
Could you ever find my bluntness appealing?
Could you ever see my individuality as sensuality or sexuality?
Probably not.
Could you ever say my loud voice was lively and happy?
Could you ever say my sarcastic tongue was witty and amusing?
Could you ever see my sarcastic sneer was a mischievous grin?
My could brown eyes a warm chocolate?
Probably not.
Could you ever find my temper, my bitchiness intriguing?
Could you ever see my antisocialness not as being lonely but as being a loner, a mystery, an enigma?
Probably not.
Could you ever love me for me?
Probably not? Why?
Because you don't know me.
