"Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it." C.S. Lewis

Comfortable
Treat me like an object
A material
Or a fine wine
Treat me like your favorite pet
Or a car that you will soon trade in
Treat me like anything...
But if you treat me like a human being
You will suddenly become foreign to me
The pain is like being awakened after a long sleep
Too much for me
Keep your distance
I have no time for uncomfortable feelings
Treat me like you half hearted-ly love me
Or get like me
And just come out and say that this is a weekend
Kind of thing
Feelings have no place on these sheets
Between you and me
And we have no place out in the world
Out of this bed
In public places
Like we care to hold hands
Or exchange adoring glances
That car was made for the road
And I was made for the bed
I'll be an object to you
Because it's everything I'm used too
Comfortable
Stay in my comfort zone

"keep your distance, i have no time for uncomfortable feelings" -- that really seems to stand out to me.
