Do you see me as soporific?
As gullible and lame?
Because I thought I was terrific,
Until you induced this newfound shame.
What happened to love as it was before?
Is it really so ludicrous a thing?
I feel I sound pretentious for
Just wanting a diamond ring.
I won't go and fabricate that without you
I'll let out strident screams,
But will a bucolic cottage by the sea with you
Be only just a dream?
So I guess I'll just wait here, nonchalantly,
Hoping that someday you might love me.
