Nothing Special I Suppose

It goes against my grain to fight Men will be men you know Yet,shattered is my special night I need to tell him so! I keep expecting something grand As I watch the time pass So slowly as the specks of sand Drift down the hourglass I'm losing hope,my ire is up The broken heart I'm bearing Is showing half-empty,the cup As at his face I'm staring "Is something wrong,babe?"he wonders So innocently blameless I feel his weakness and blunders Why,that man must be shameless! I worked so hard on his birthday So it would be the best A special time in every way Now he's put to the test He's drawing a blank,it's plain to see I'm mad as an old,wet hen! To him it's some big mystery He'd better think again! I must admit,he's awfully cute And in for a surprize When he's there in his birthday suit He might then realize When I turn him down later tonight And give him the cold shoulder His hurting my heart just isn't right I'm wiser now that I'm older! **for contest"Emotional Response" **sponsored by Joyce Johnson
