Free Cee Excuse Me But That Is No Excuse

i don't want a bell that rarely rings
i don't want a singer that seldom sings
i don't want a stream that forgets to flow
and i don't want a breeze that forgets to blow

i don't want to talk about what you want to talk about
i don't want to discuss a diatribe of doubt
i don't want to hear anything you have to say
and i don't want to hear a lie about why you went away

i don't want to sleep next to a god damned liar
i don't want to sleep next to naked desire
i don't want to recall what you want to recall
and i don't want to rehash your tale told so tall

do not tell me what you've told me ten times before
don't say why you made me walk out the door
please don't tell me another falsehood that lies between suspicion and a lie
and don't give me excuses i won't excuse you for and you know why

hush your mouth wherein your inexcusable explnations exist
lock those luscious lips that i once could not resist
i don't want to hear bells whose clappers are cracked and rusted
and i don't want to hear more lies from a woman i once trusted
       (c)2012....PHREEPOETREE ~free cee!~
