NOT ATTRACTED << Back to the Poem List

Does it make you feel better to say I must be hiding from love?
Does it massage your fragile ego?
Your transparent insecurities make me smile,
Those archaic notions you're clinging to.

But why must I be the one to sweetly smile and stay silent?
Why must I be the one to salvage your pride?
I am not hiding from love.
I do not have a "thing" against men.

I'm just not attracted to you.
