Just what did I say
That pissed you off so?
--Don't answer that,
It's a rhetorical question.
None of my answers
Ever seem to be right,
And what are the chances
One of them ever will?
How do you win
When you've already lost
At the beginning?
I've got a full-blown case
Of self-doubt,
With no cure in sight.
My words will never convince you,
I'd never be able
To convert you to my point of view.
As a dialectic evangelist,
I'm quite the failure.
I win all the arugments
In my mind,
But reality is nothing
Like the inside of my head.
Just what didn't I say
To convince you to stay?

how about, "I love you. please stay"

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

This struck me...I know this feeling.
And Pegasus...unfortunately I love isn't always enough.

Wonderful Job...gofor.

Sometimes it seems impossible to do or say anything right. Some people just try to control you that way. Maybe that's not a person you should want to keep around.

To love another person is to see the face of God.
