Two Good Heads...
I know
you not
yes,
I know
you not,
because
you don't care
to know me.
You detest me;
You resist me;
you abhor me.
you avoid me.
You want
to know me?
Then,
I'll strive
to know you better;
I would love you.
Are you
in isolation?
Are you
in solitude?
Do you need
my companionship?
Do you need
my friendship?
Then I would give you companionship.
I would give
you friendship,
Because two good heads
are better than one.
Loneliness leads
to temptation.
