Stupid answers

She asked me if she was pretty,
And I said no
She asked if she was fat,
And I said she was…
She asked me if I wanted her
And I said no
She asked if I would cry if she went away,
I said no I wouldn’t

Then she turned her back on me and walked away
Slowly, heart-breaking, as tears started falling
Then I grabbed her hand and told her to stay.
Then I said,

You aren’t pretty,
you’re beautiful…
And the only thing that’s fat,
is your heart.
I don’t want you.
I need you.
And if you left me, I wouldn’t cry…
I would die.
