Something New

Oh no, not you, she said, she said
But something new, instead instead
We’ve been here before darling so many times
I know this script, I can read you the lines

And I want him now, yes the one I can’t see
The one in the gloaming who looks now at me
He isn’t yet present and I’m not yet there
But I sense oftentimes, on the wing, in the air

I could be wrong yes, it has happened before
He may be a friend, just a friend, nothing more
To reach through two worlds and to touch fingertips
To laugh in the dark and to love all to bits

My life is for loving, my friends are forever
But you’re not my friend darling, you are my lover
And my heart, my wild heart is not precious to you
So cheerio sweetheart, I want something new

Now, you're a poem

I didn’t see this one coming
He hit me broadside with a text
Thanks for the fun, take care, it said
I was oooh just a little bit vexed

I’m glad he had fun
I don’t think I did
We had unfinished business
He had two kids

A careless instruction from a man who doesn’t
Oooh they make me cross these boys
A rogue and a scoundrel he is in his eyes
Next time perhaps a blow up toy?

He thinks he’s been honest and all above board
But a person can trick without saying a word
I deleted his number
I turned off my phone
For now, I’m truly much better alone
