Criteria

If you say
That you couldn't see him in that way
What do you really mean to convey?
That he's nothing more than a diversion?
That he's not a part of your vision?

If you decide
That you simply like having him by your side
What are you trying to hide?
That he's important, but not so much?
That he's moved you, but only a touch?

And if you conclude
That you just aren't in the mood
What instead will be understood?
That he's a flower, but not a rose?
That he's your doll, but undeserving of your prettier clothes?

I say to you
Fear the day
That you and your beauty, once again become two
For gone will be
Your submissive diversion
Your uncharming flower
Your forgotten doll.

Forget it.
