What gives you the right

when I say no to you

can't pry in my head

to ascertain my view

Maybe it's your eyes

or that you are too tall

don't call me baby

you don’t know me at all

No means no, damn it

I have said it enough

there’s no you and me

you don’t have the right stuff

Hate your pestering

I won’t apologize

there's no connection

I will not be your prize

Nothing you can say

will ever change my mind

I'm back in control

I have been far too kind

Get it through your head

I will not justify

So be on your way

adios and goodbye

**Once again, a very special thank you to Ping for his continued guidance, friendship, laughter, inspiration, advice, mentoring, support and kicking my butt to not half ass my work and to really dig deep about what I am trying to convey. Your patience and mentoring is priceless. As I continue to grow, I hope to someday pay forward the kindest you have gifted**
