I could be mean

but I won't

because it will make me feel good now

but bad when you're gone

and I need to feel

I have done right by you

even if by me you don't

I could be mean

so you go

but then I would never know

if the love we had

suffered from the natural decay

that often comes - despite our hopes

Mean

I guess I was

for lack of self control

for you did not let your love show

and when my displays met with little affection

I felt my frustration grow.
