it was so sweet of you to show up at my door flowers in your hand heart open, like a sore did it take you a long while to write me that song to paint me a picture with sweet, unspoken words to admit that you were wrong do you expect me fake a smile and listen to your lies while your words twist red like sin intruding the pure, white sky i'd lie, too, and say its fine that i really don't care.. but i can't do that you ******* fool you hurt me all too much i refuse to be your night time secret i will not be your crutch I'm moving on and on you know, i hope you cry tonight and when you call me on the phone i'll laugh right in your ear you ******* fool don't you see? I'm about to disappear...

Love hurts everyone, this is kind of a twist, though. As the apologizing lover thinks things are okay, that the hurt one will alway come running back, ***** is growing stronger and more independent. Soon the poem shifts from a whining, pleading tone to a harsh, independent-- almost satirical tone. Soon the hurt lover has become indifferent, to the point where ***** tells the other to watch him/her disappear.. (a bit ironic)!
