“Reputation”


My reputation is horrible.
Females think that I’m so terrible.

With these facts, will Lisa help me out?
Or, will she make me sad all about?

Lisa’s popular and she’s so nice.
Will she want my love and my advice?

I’m so scared of getting hurt again.
I just want Lisa’s love to depend.

I’m a sorry loser full of pain.
I always lose what I’ve tried to gain.

If Lisa finds out that I love her,
she might say no and make me colder.

I try my very best to get her.
But, my chances are getting longer.

My life is so devoted to her,
if one thing fails, I’m in deep danger.

I have so much to give to Lisa,
but will my reputation and the
fact that I am nothing like her, will
she give me love for my heart to fill?

I am not at a good position.
All because of my reputation.
