The Sweetest Words.
"I just don't want to see you marry him."
Could you have been more mild?
You only met him once,
please don't treat me like a child.
I love you like my mother,
and you've raised me as such.
Still, this is one case
in which I won't give a fuck.
You hear the things I say about him,
you know he's always on my mind.
Understand, if you would,
that your favorite left me behind.
I've seen things
you wouldn't believe,
not to act grown,
but listen... please.
I know what I want,
and I want him.
Don't look at me that way,
please don't seem so grim.
That needle in my arm,
you never knew about.
All my hardest troubles,
I let you live without.
Please take it seriously,
that I'm telling you this.
For the first time in my life...
I've been granted bliss.
