What Are You Saying Inside?Hmmmm!!

I started thinking about, what my mouth says out loud but what my mind is screaming inside...I am sure somebody knows what I'm talking about....Bare with me here.LOL So I'm in the grocery store, and I see this girl I used to know-she always thought she was better than me..."Oh no, here she comes-"She says "Hey girl, Oh it's so good to see you!! My mouth says" Wow, what a wonderful surprise!!..But inside my mind was screaming, "If you don't get away from me right now. "I swear I will beat you down.. So my ex husband, asks me "Is it okay if I bring my girlfriend with me to pick up our daughter..My mouth says "oh sure- no problem".....But inside my mind is screaming."what?? "Hell no"-"You gonna bring her -here-"To my house- Aw Y'all both in for a treat". So I'm at Coco's..The waiter comes over and says,"Are you ready to order? I say sure, "I'll have the Big bite.."She says okay-your order will be right up..Later she comes bringing me a plate with hardly nothing on it...She asked" Is everything okay..My mouth says, "Uh huh...Thank you. But inside my mind was screaming, "CHEAT- TED" "I've been CHEATED..Big Plate,Little bite!! So this guy I met a few months back...gave him my number and he just barely called me.."Is this Tyesha, he asked"..I said "Yes, who is this..Gregg remember me from the store..I'm like oh yeah, its been awhile..So then he starts to say, "Girl I been thinking bout you.."You been on my mind along time..Now both my mouth and my mind, started screaming.."Oh really?" Is that right? "About 3 months now you been thinking bout me and you never called until now?? "He keeps rambling on and I just say "Look I don't know what kind of game you trying to play but I'm not interested..."If you really wanted to get to know me , You would have called the same day I gave you my number.."Okay... so see ya,"wouldn't want to be ya...and uh Lose my NUMBER!!!Jerk..

this work seems more like a short story.even the free verse form u employed has a standard.But the cconcept of your story is colorful.reminds me of the noble laurette Wole Soyinka`s telephone conversation.u re headed ssomewhere.
