Positively negative 2009
Why me?
Why should I be?
the one.
Who has to carry on
when hope
is all but gone.
Can I
refuse if I so choose?
I ask
What is the task
and who
dictates what I must do?
I will
not try to fulfil
your dream.
Try to gain your esteem
I can
do without easily.
I say
my answer’s no.
today
or any other day.
I do
What I want to
Not what
you tell me I must do.
You may
find someone who
accepts
that what you say is true.
Not me!
Definitely
you see
I independently
refuse.
It is my right to be
Master
of my own fate
deny
you the right to dictate.
to me.
You have no right
to be
so insistent.
Why not do it yourself.
If it
needs to be done.
Are you
afraid that you might fail.
Your words
do not ring true.
Therefore
I will repeat to you.
again.
This time I’ll make it plain.
I shall
refuse to do
What you
apparently expect.
