That Guy

That guy
In order to
Attract your
Attention,
Will throw
Caring words
At you,
To show
As if he
Really
Cares
For you

But he will
Tease and
Bully you,
If you don't
Give him
The required
Attention,
Proving to you
That he's so full of
Pretension,
As he cannot
Bear your
Rejection,
So in order to
Cope with his
Dejection,
He subjects
You to abject
Humiliation

And, what do you do?

Of course,
You walk away
Not to be
Subjugated
By his
Selfish
Decision
Or else
He'll keep
Making you
Feel demented
With his
Slanderous
Words…
And vilifying
Actions…
For, human
Relations
Are all about
Survival -
And taking
Precautions
That people
Don't walk
All over you…
And make you
The victim of
Their targeted
Precision in
Slaying you
With their
Dastardly
Derision.
