Not The One Poem by Rhona McFerran

I'm sure that you
can get someone to
be at your beck and call
put life on hold
and grovel and crawl

but I'm not the One.

I'm sure that you
can get someone to
take your disrespect
manipulations
and neglect

but I'm not the One.

I'm sure that he or she
will never disagree
never cause alarm
or controversy

but I'm not the One.

I'm sure they'll go along
desperate to belong
keep supporting you
when they know you're wrong

but I'm not the One.
