How the Dots Connect



Imagine we were dots.
How close we would be?
I'd be 2,2
and you'd be 2,3.

How close would that be?
Well imagine I was next to you,
and that you were next to me.

I love you female,
I sure as heck do.
I love you more,
than 20 2.

But you don't see that.
You put me in my own zone,
I'm not a factor in your life.

I'm as usless as a anything x 0.
The answer is obvious,
it's worse than Robert Denero.

Please help me Lord,
Please help her see,
that I'm her (2,2)
If she's my (2,3).
