You say that you want to know me But do you really care? You want me to open to you My very soul laid bare
You say that you want me But still have your fears Where were you when I shed all of my tears
You say that you need me But when the time comes You'll dance to the tune Of someone else's drums
You say that you love me But how can it be? You love only my essence Not the man that is me

About this poem:
This poem was written after someone I met online declared their undying love for me . . . even though we'd never met! (maybe I'm just getting cynical in my old age? LOL )
