You Never Know

Coup d'oeil, you tried to comport
For your sake, I obscure my discomfort
As a man of refinement, I dismiss bizarre incitements
Yet the verity of my deeds I shall say in perspectives most iridescent

Compulsive are your manners, and impulsive your mouth
Which rattles and spews out dotty words that douts
You conceive me to be your heart's one true desire
When you pride in another, which sounds as good as dire

Nescient, as you always are, you're not aware
That I only see you as amusement, the only reason I cared
Because I am twice the mich as you perceive yourself to be
And yet you never sumise, surprisingly fooled, all lovesick on me

I guess I should tell you the truth,  for just as much
Since you were a good friend, if you originally intended to be as such
I, your seatmate, am very, very miffed of you
And, truthfully, I know that most of us, most that you know, do too.
