I'm Just Not
what kind of question is that?
did it ever occur to you that maybe I'm just not like every girl you've ever seduced,
and don't want to be?
isn't that good enough?
do you not like me enough to care?
I don't know how else I can spell this out for you:
I just don't,
I'm just not.
can't I just be the same girl I've always been?
the girl you've loved so far?
why is that not okay all of a sudden?
just because the lights are out
and we see with our fingertips
doesn't mean that I'm not really there anymore,
or that I'm somehow different -
I'm not,
I'm just not.
I just want to love you the same way I've always loved you,
and for that to be enough
like it always has been.
