To the girl who said no — with style and grace,
Who dodged my charm like it’s pepper spray to the face.
I came with lines that I thought were tight,
You left me ghosted faster than light.
I said, “Are you a doctor? 'Cause you cured my blues.”
You blinked, then asked, “Did you lose some screws?”
I laughed it off, thought maybe you’re shy…
Till you hit me with, “Boy, goodbye.”
You had the nerve, the courage, the gall,
To watch me trip over my pride and fall.
Like a soccer match in my heart’s own chest,
Ref blew the whistle—you just weren't impressed.
But girl, I thank you, truly I do,
You spared me heartbreak times two.
If you said yes, we'd be a mess,
You’d hate my jokes and how I dress.
You dodged a bullet — and so did I,
I still eat cereal at midnight and cry.
So raise your glass to the “no” you gave,
You saved yourself… and my dignity’s grave.
But if you ever change your mind, just so you know—
...Actually no, forget it. That was three years ago
