His Yammer

Stricken by the yammer, 
I decided to leave. 			
I'd rather be in 'The Slammer' 
as he'd never drop to one knee' 

I love you, I do,
but you must not pretend- 
I am nothing, for you!
You know I don't contend!

So explain why you do this- 
Why did I ever believe,
I could ever be your fair Miss?
Why couldn't YOU simply leave?
