Calling L B
Calling ??? L. B.
You take the time to call, my dear, yet say nothing at all.
You hear me, of this I am sure, on deaf ears my words fall.
With all that you understand about psychology,
this, you do not use, do not care, no apology.
You speak as though nothing took place,
– last night’s verbal attack – this slap in the face.
You just went on your merry way home
passed me by - in your pain, left me alone.
Maybe that is where I should be ?, on my own.
Not a word face to face, not even by phone.
I wonder where ?, have all your words gone to
– that lead me to believe – that came from you.
My thoughts have come to – it is a game !
That, for me, my dear, is a dam shame !
Because of that, nothing will ever be the same,
even though, I know, your history is to blame.
This has become plane and painfully clear,
there is little for me, with you, my Dear.
