I'm not stubborn, just me.

I'm sorry to say no,
wait, no, I'm not.

I'm sorry for being difficult,
for being such a challenge;
or am I too open-minded for you?

I'm not unhappy to disagree,
but happy to be of service.

I'm sorry if you don't like me,
I do not like you either;
you are too simple minded.

I take everything I've ever said back,
I don't care what you think of me -
everyone will always be at a cross road.
