Incompatible

It wasn’t my fault it didn’t work out We were doomed right from the start We just were not compatible Which drove us two apart. I’m not to blame but neither were you Our outlook together was poor Our goals were as different as night and day There’s no way that we could endure. You have no proof I told you lies That I had been untrue At the time I had but one true love And that my dear was you. So, I will show no shame at all Let’s part as friends today And wish each other all the best And go our separate ways. fOUR LINE CONTEST
