You know I would give you anything short of up <br />Yet that's exactly what you have asked for <br />So back I sit pretending to do just that <br />It’s what you wanted, so reluctantly I obey <br />Now we play a game, I watch myself with astonishment <br />As I participate, telling myself it's ok <br />All the while knowing it isn't enough <br />But it's what you want, so it's what I'll give you.<br /><br />Christopher Ridgeway<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/untitled-2-67/
