Fractions

If I loved him 1/5 as much

as I loved you,

I would squeeze him so hard

he'd start turning blue.



If I liked him 1/4 as much

as I liked you,

I'd buy him a car

both shiny and new.



If I had a crush on him a 1/3 as much

as I do on you,

I'd send him 50 admirer notes

and he'd never have a clue.

If I wanted to hug him 1/2 as much

as I want to hug you,

I'd hug him for half a lifetime,

And I still might not be through.

If I was in love with him as much

as I am in you,

Then... Oh wait...

That could never be true.
