John Lawless Poet Rhyme

I'M Breaking Up With You

I’m Breaking Up With You


I shun the rules
You polish jewels
Our words tumble
Over the truth
It wasn’t you – it was me
It wasn’t me – it was you
The contest over
we are through.

My "muse" has been in therapy since I go hooked on the poetry soup contest. Thanks for you time and effort in running the contests. John
