because she loves too many people

because she loves too many people



an old friend, Derrick once asked me,
"are you always this nice to people?"
after we verified that we don't
share the same feelings
for each other.

i said yes, why not?
he said don't.
because people misunderstood.

i don't understand why.
why can't i be nice to people.




art school.
a classmate mistaken my niceness
for love-interest.
he said i was too nice to him,
gave him the wrong idea.




dear J,
i'm afraid you are right.
i am link into a picture
of a lovers' discourse.
because i am nice.
and i love too many people.
so,
someone hates me.

now i need Roland Barthes
to explain to her,
"it is all a question of using signs;
and of signs which have no actual content".

One isolated heart need to love many people and believes that love
just as the other isolated heart cannot love anybody and disbelieves love
i was afraid you might belong to the former
you know, it's alright not to love me

an isolated heart needs to love many people and convince itself of that love
you don't(do you)
and you shouldn't be (should you be)
