Definitely Maybe
He gazed just past her empty, soulful eyes
and said, "I really kinda love you so.
I always sometimes see you as a prize
and feel my love will surely maybe grow.
In one or maybe nine or seven years,
I'm almost pretty sure I'll want a wife.
If you say 'Maybe not," you'll see my tears.
Your words will cut just like a butter knife.
The children we won't have will be so sad.
The home we never built will soon fall in.
The in-laws who aren't there will be so mad
because we weren't where we had never been."

"I've seldom never heard such heartfelt bunk.
You've made your feelings clear as mud," she said.
"I think I know what I just heard is junk.
I sorta wish you'd drop somewhat half-dead."
