1. I stood at your door in aloofness
His words were colored by his frown

2. At times he gave me hope of union
At others he told me move on

3. Know that when words contradict
And mingle, it is but a lie

4. I am determined, though he refuses
To honor what my insight implies

5. I watch until confusion takes
Its toll on his fickle mind’s prize

6. If he makes amends, I’ll meet him gently
That is what should suffice

7. If not, when passions dissipate
A firm rescinder will suffice
