When I said, 'You are the one,' he then began to say, 'What will you do? If you look at me, I am the one.'

This couplet captures the painful paradox of declaration. The lover, having declared the beloved as their entire existence, is met with an evasive reply. The beloved suggests that even if the lover acknowledges their importance, it will ultimately lead to departure or withdrawal. It speaks to the distance between absolute devotion and the unpredictable nature of the heart.
