Boundaries

*Babe, my head is bursting

Doll, my heart is flat

Angel, where's my  whiskey?

Love, you'll give me that*

 

I will not be your angel

I will not bear your bites

I won't stand silent vigil

I won't have your slights

 

I am not here to serve you

I am not here to cry

You won't be here to mock me

As I give my dying sigh

 

I am not your angel

I am not your 'gal'

You're no longer my friend

We were never pals

 

Someday maybe

You might see why

Someday, maybe,

Pigs will fly

 

(Can you fly?)
