Exhausted on every level

They lay entwined in deepest slumber

And slept til dawn appeared

My God, were they in lumber!

 

 

 

 

 

During idle thoughts

As he watched dusk take over the day

Came into his mind that dreaded woman

The one he shouldn’t have let get away.

 

 

 

 

Thoughts of a promised wonderland

Years of planning gone to waste

Only playing second fiddle

As back home, he always raced.

He could see all too clearly now,

that what he had mistaken for love

was no more than need on her part.

She’d used him as an emotional lever

and consequently broken his heart.

The late night prancer

The single girls dream

The compulsive chancer

The cat that got the cream

The married romancer

Go home, you fool – redeem.

 

 

 

 

 

 

It’s true that opposites attract

and open up avenues to each other.

But when the differences are too great,

sometimes the effort isn’t worth the bother.

Heaven was in the back seat of his limousine,

until a late night voyeur appeared on the scene.

 

 

 

 

 

‘It won’t last’ they said.

‘You’re too young’ they said.

‘You haven’t had a life’ they said.

‘You’re all off your head’ she said

and with him – fled.

When asked what she was thinking

about, she would always reply ‘nothing’.

But it was apparent that this ‘nothing’ had

taken over her heart and mind.

For the more she thought about ‘nothing’

it seemed the truth she was hiding behind,

and that someone, lost in her past, she

constantly thought about and pined.

There comes a time

to set aside boyish dreams,

and take on a princess

to share your schemes.

 

There comes a time

and that time is now,

so from adolescence

take a bow.
