An All Too Familiar Modus

An All Too Familiar Modus

 

Oh’ you poor wee man

you’ve got it bad don’t you ..

 

Does she call you luv and

cry at every opportunity ..

 

Does she claim to burn candles

and say prayers for you too ..

 

Does she then throw them

all back in your face ..

 

Well it seems she does to all of us

don’t blame yourself though ..

 

She will do that for you

without a shadow of a doubt ..

 

Take my word, it won’t be long

soon you will be well and truly done ..

 

And then, when she has had her fill

you will no doubt, be discarded too ..

              Ohhh
              That happens
              Only if sooner we could realise before being badly hurt inside
              Alas love is unpredictable and blind

                  The praying mantis lover. Apparently their kind are the most irresistible. The drawing flame, whose heat burns the most.

                  • myself and me

                    Very familiar, but those who was in it all thought they were different and special.
