Need Not
I need not fear what you think of me.
I'm in no need of your disgraceful pity.
I feel your fear that I'm some creepy loon.
A man who's come to take you down to the tomb.
All I wanted was freindship maybe more.
If it's not what you wanted I'd step back from the door.
You told me you liked me, I knew what you meant.
A freind was all I said and
a freind I meant.
You treat me like I had steped over the bound.
When I laid clear just my curiosity I was looking and found.
To know and to show a freind both ways need.
You took it all wrong and false bile you did feed.
I need not fear what you are but I do.
You're a silly little thing that worships
celebrity fools.
I need not fear what you think,
it's just my little game.
Of self loathing and wonder,
of what I do that's to blame.
I need not fear a shallow one such as you.
You've shown the only one you think of is you.
