Dismissed

You sashay on by me
your nose in the air
a glance of dismissal
in those green eyes you wear

Enticing me more with
your lack of concern
Your show of indifference
Only makes my heart yearn

So I bow to your wishes
I bow to your whims
But find myself here
Stuck out on a limb
Trying to claw my way in

Oh…why do you scorn me?
What else can I do?
O Puddy Tat…Puddy Tat
I love you
