There is no remedy for this refusal of yours; every day you simply say, "not today."

In this charming couplet, the poet captures the sweet agony of being caught in the beloved's endless loop of postponement. The refusal isn't an outright, crushing rejection, but a playful 'not today' that keeps hope alive while prolonging the lover's torment. It reveals the classic paradox of romance, where the endless waiting itself becomes an incurable yet cherished affliction.
