The Rules
The rules are:
Don't come near me.
If you must come near me
Don't touch me.
If you've got to touch me
Don't hurt me.
If you're going to hurt me,
At least let me
Hurt you back.
Because
I don't know if you know
But your nearness scares me
And your touch burns me
And I'm terrified of pain.
But
I still want you to love me
And if you can
Find me lovable, love me
And I love you, but
I can't make you love me
And it hurts.
It hurts.
I can't describe the pain.
