I think I love him
But he won't love you
He makes me so giddy
He has to hate you
But he says he loves me
He is lying
No, he can't be
Oh, but he is
Everything is so passionate though
To YOU it is
To HIM is is. He said so.
He thinks you are ugly
I know I am ugly
He thinks you are fat
No! He wants me to eat more
Because he needs a reason to leave.
But he hates it when I starve
"You are a fat *****. Bye"
He would never call me a *****!
How do you know?
Because we talk!
About serious things?
No...
See what I am saying?
Yeah, but--
*No buts. He hates you.
But he won't love you

Your columns could play off each other or be separate, or maybe they could be a conversation. They could read vertically only, or vertically and horizontally.
