Unlucky In Love

There once was a Merman named Harry
Who was in love with a Mermaid named Mary
So he wrote her a poem
And invited her home
Unfortunatly, she turned out to be Larry

Lot of that seems to be happening more and more.I had 2 suicide attempts this past month but I am about to make it happen.I am just to stressed out and can't handle it.Hope all is well with you.

Yes! Few words, one syllable and much meaning. Now that is adroit wit worthy of Nash or Parker. Well done! regards, Gerard.
