I Cannot Understand

You frightened me, I was afraid,

You followed me; I am intrigued.

You threaten me; I do not sway,

You're warning me, I'm not afraid.

You come to me; you do not stay,

I instigate; you push away.

You risk for me; I try to see,

But I cannot understand you.

We do not speak of certain things,

The kiss (was a necessity, I said) we wished was something more,

How you looked at beauty and it was not me,

How when you saw her, I was invisible.

I cannot understand you.
