My Mary's Gone!

I got smashed one night,

when I  was  alone.

Mary found out when

she came home.

She walked a pace

and picked up the phone.

Wonder how long she will be gone?

If I hadn't lied and had that beer,

I would still have my Mary here!

I like this, although I truly believe it takes more than one small relapse to end a relationship! Lonnie
