Dear Depressed
Dear ‘Depressed’: So you’re in a mess.
You’re not sure what to do.
I think I have your answer, because
Your boyfriend contacted me too.
Now, you may not be happy
With what he had to say.
When I asked him if he loves you,
He made a face and said, “No way!”
Then I said, “She thinks that you love her.
Do you?...or was it just a Summer fling?
“No! Yes!,” he said. I’ve tried to make it clear
It’s over and she doesn’t mean a thing.
I was feeling trapped by my fiance,
So I had a fling. Yes, I cheated… I guess;
But my conscience was killing me,
So I went to her and confessed.
She’s forgiven me. We’re soon to be wed.
She’s who’s been answering the phones.
So, you can help. Just talk to that crazy girl.
Please ask her to leave us alone.”
Well, Depressed. I guess that’s it.
You’d better look for a new ‘steady’.
On second thought, maybe not;
I think you’ve had TWO many already.
