Because you asked.

Eeyore

Oh, my sullen friend,
My "always under the raincloud" friend,
My cheerless, hopeless friend;
Your aversion to all humanity
Frightens me
Nearly as much as our sudden confidence.
There's a look, an emotion,
Behind your eyes I cannot read.
Is it relief to have found a willing ear?
Is it well hidden contempt?
When you challenge me to
Stay in your company when I should go
There's something in your voice,
Your face,
That arrests me...
