Those Who Mean Most (The Mockery)
I
“Nothing is set in stone;
besides, I don’t even know what I want.
I don’t care about your hopes and dreams;
my needs matter so much more.”
II
“Doing dishes;
it’s supposed to come naturally for a girl.
I never give you praise as is, so while I'm at it,
let me step all over your self-esteem.”
III
“I love you for who you are,
and it’s alright to be weird.
It was just another gay joke;
why are you so offended?”
IV
“I like it, but I think you can do it better.
However, you can figure it out by yourself.
I’ll watch you drown in the meantime.
What do you think that symbolizes?”
