With this cuff
 
        I thee unwed
 
This friendship cuff
 
Obliterates Erases Eradicates Removes Undoes
 
        my love
With this cuff
 
        I never loved you
 
I don't love you
 
        I will never love you
 
I won't love you
 
        It's a no love cuff
 
I will not kiss you
 
        I have never kissed you
 
Tasted your lips
 
Felt your breath
        Touched your hair
 
I will never hold you
 
        Dream of you
 
        Caress your face
 
With this cuff
 
        I pledge my silence
 
Never again to express
 
        My feelings for you
 
Never again to open
 
        My heart to you
 
With this cuff
 
        I welcome death
 
I rejoice in the anticipation
 
        Of peace 
 
        An end to the suffering
 
An end to a life
 
        Without love
 
With this cuff
 
        I conjoin our friendship
 
And pray for the grave
 
And the cold unfeeling dirt
