Old Habitd Die Hard

A right pair of dim wits, leaving one other emotionally scared That’s her and him, but true what they say old habits die hard Always a storm, again at each others thoats, this girl and guy Is it the norm? comparing notes, if they'd let sleeping dogs lie He tries but though in oblivion, she fails to even notice he's their But could she be forgiven? shes doing her nails or fixing her hair Then shed ask why he did not ring her? and he is not yet home Because of course the poor blokes working his finger to the bone I'm actually suprised! that she did not buy a lead for his birthday But he's one of those guys, an unuasl breed, not the sort to srtay She says jump! a lap dog he comes runing, tail between his legs But at times she can be cunning,I think she like's it when he begs And when push comes to shove their back to the same old routine Is it just called puppy love? as at times that is what it would so seem Do they realise what side their breads butterd on? a very unusal mix Or lack of pride? I mutterd can anyone! teach an old dog new tricks? WRITTEN 2/10/ 2012 ABOUT TWO PEOPLE I ONCE KNEW ALWAYS A FOLLW UP TO TWEEDLE DUM TWEEDLE DEE......written 2012........................... NOTE TO READERS,,,,,,,,,, sorry I’ve put this on again much easer than having to reedit while on soup just tweaked last couple of verses as felt this reads better and as one i like allot and personal to self it was bugging me for quite a while as seemed a little all over the place originally this was eight verse long but felt to much so tried cramming a lot into six verses which took a while trying to keep a pattern but also with the metaphors to adda little humour on top this is about an ex girlfriend and myself but lousy based on alot of other relationships Ive seen at times in past ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, this has BEEN A BIT UPDATED AND CHOPED DOWN TO FOUR VERSE RATHER THAN SIX I FELT THEIRS ENOUGH IN HERE TO EXPLAIN WITHOUT DRAGING
