Nevermind

It's not love
it's dating

I've screwed it up innumerable ways
I've been too forward
too eager
then too distant
too disconnected

I had a great time
I'm sure she did too

I sent a note
she ignores it in her reply
I say too much

I'm speaking english
I should be speaking player

That's why I'm sure
I'll never get to lay her

Yet again I know
I am a donut

"Don't say you want to know her"
"Don't let her know how impressed you are"
"Hide your cards"

I wait in this silence
And I say well...
Nevermind

I don't need this
and I wasn't going to pursue her
not in the first place

I don't need this
what I wanted was someone
who might want to know me

And I see that's not yet
who she wants to be

Whatever
Nevermind
I'll leave this behind
I am a donut
