Dream On

 

I can see the way that you are undressing me with your eyes,
Behind the smirk you wear on your face lives a thousand lies,
And how you are acting tonight comes as no surprise,
Cuz I could tell from a mile away you were just like all the other guys.

 

You’re playing with me like I’m some game to be won,
Like I’m just another project that you gotta get done,
Like I’m just another jacket that you gotta try on for size,
But I could see from a mile away that you’re just like the other guys.

 

Yeah, you’re just like the other guys…

 

You’ll hit it and quit it,
You’ll take me then break me,
You will love me then leave me,
Baby, don’t deceive me.

 

Yeah, you’re just like the other guys.

 

I can’t believe that you expect me,
To let you undress me,
To touch me,
To sex me,
Oh baby, please,
Is that really the kind of woman you think I am?

 

Boy, you better realize that I’m better than that.

I love this poem. It is awesome. I am adding it to my list of faves, on my computer. I might even print it out, and paste in in my fave poem book. I especially like the way it can be used as a song. I love poems that can be either spoken or sung.
