I ought not to love you so,

I ought to be ashamed,

I ought to give you up,

Tell you my love has waned,
              --- But ---
I do, --
          I don't,
                     I can't,
                              I won't

 Love is an urchin
    a poor gutter rat
      starved and anemic
        But happy at that
