a stranger asked her to dance
but she declined.

he frowned and asked:
why?

because i'm tired of being
broken
bruised
forgotten
she said.

he smiled

she responded
that's what the last one said, too.

the concept is strange
she continues
that you want me
just to dump me
when you get bored.

i am not yours
i am mine.
