I don't want your love
It's not that I think
You're insincere.
It's just post-ironic
Sentiment
I'm afraid of.
You won't say goodbye.
And I haven't I made it
Crystal clear.
You sit facing me
Sip your tea
And philosophize.
Contrary to
The popular view
I don't need affection
From you.
('Cause not everyone
Needs to be...)
Loved by you.
And can't we play this romance
By ear.
Improvising as to
Each motif -
Grace notes accrue...
Oh! I don't want your love.
In spite of the fact
You think I do.
You just perch atop
Your homeade version
Of
Xanadu.
