Oh Me, Oh My

Oh me,Oh My Here I am sitting in this corner, Wondering where my baby could be, I am once again a loner My little baby I just cannot see. She said she was going for a bite to eat. I went ahead and picked us two seats. I said,"Darling you know where to find me It is where we always watch the matinee. She promised to be back in the twinkle of an eye But I soon found out,her promise was a little white lie Oh me,Oh my,my baby why? I waited and waited for her to come back Time was slipping fast I wondered if she had fainted Had a heart attack Or if she had to spend some time just to pay the cost Oh me,Oh my,my baby why? By now the show had started And I was now downhearted I just wanted her close to me Just like a kitten and its flea I decided to sit tight till the break Then a further decision I'll have to make Should I send out an sos Or her fidelity I got to trust Oh me,oh my,my baby why? At the start of the break the lights came on They shone from above,like a midday sun Making it easy for all to see my little baby where she shouldn't be She was entwined in someones arm Her clothes were like sails in a storm What my eyes didn't see the darkness did censure. Where his lips did go,his hands did venture. I beckoned her to come to me I guess why she was there she just couldn't see. The lights were out,the place was dark She was just like Noah, without his ark. She looked at me and turned her back Then shout out, I have given you the sack. Oh me,Oh my, my baby why?

This must have been a hurting experience? It is so tearful. I think I would have cried. I like this writing a lot. It made me think.

Its not actually true , but was inspired by a visit to a cinema on a first date. I would not have cried, I would probably have fought.lol
