I do wonder why you chose me,      Could it be my foreign looks,      Or perhaps you wanted to add an Asian to your books Why on earth indeed, especially when you're free? I hope it's because we're destined to be,      But I feel as if I'm on a hook.      This feels surreal just like out of a book; I do wonder how you love me.   I have a volatile mind,        That will not cease doubts   From overflowing until I'm out-shined.   I feel drained from being entwined         With my thoughts, hoping for that final knockout.         Hoping for all this to end - yes, I know I'm a sellout.   But this is my life; I will not be out-shined.
