M.E.M.

Question

I’ve been meaning to ask,

I mean—

Is it okay if I—

Never mind.

I don’t want to know what you might say

to the question I am really wanting to ask

It won’t be pretty,

the answer you give.

I know,

But still.

I just want to know

You can just say

yes or no,

What would you say if I asked—

Never mind.

There is no other way to phrase it

I need to know the answer

But I might be crushed

Anyway, I’ll ask

Never mind.
