Roll and Bounced

You're only going to get so close.
So don't try to rub up against my shoulders.
When anyone begins to discuss me with insignificant others...
They join that crowd.
And I maintain distance.

You brought out that frost in me.
I am more into one-on-one contact.
I'm not into group therapy sessions.
I am not in need of a false hug to prove a worthiness.
I'm not into it.

So when you decided I needed to be enrolled...
From you I did a roll and bounced.
End of discussion.
