Some are jealous of my life
because it is the single strife

   No kids to  to clean up after    
No roles for the actor

    No husband to answer to
No nightly deja vu

   No cooking and cleaning that must be done
No filled minivans, on the run

   No soccer practice, no paintings to hang
No afternoon quarrels of who should pick up the 'tang'

   The grass is always greener
I always say
For my nights and days are filled with gray

   I cook and clean for myself
For these are the cards I've been dealt

   No one to answer to
No quarrels or games

This life alone is such a shame

   The pictures I hang are of my travels
But all I want are crayonned marvels

   A family of which to call my own
More than a dog to fill my home

   I pray on my knees
to give me all of these
That which is greener over sees
~~~<@>~~~


could you say
I . LOVE . YOU
to someone who
you don't know

from adam?

Not the paltry
i ♡ u
that comes
on a

T SHIRT


that some
false christians
say
"i love you with the
love of the lord"


Lord has an
UPPER CASE

you might as well
love
a

STONE

stones are more
malleable

at least they
can be
erroded
by the
water
of

£♡¥€

could
you
walk
up
to
a
perfect
STRANGER­
and say
~3~
words
?

even a
FRI€ND
might think
you need to
get
away
for
a
while


why do the
big three words
go with the
big four letters

YOU KNOW THE ONES
I MEAN

then there's the
big three letter

~~~ $ . € . X ~~~

could you look
a STRANGER in
the eyes
and say
I . LOVE . YOU
whilst
you're
en flagrente delicto
~ ??? ~

we
abhor
the
*****

hmmm?

but the
DEBUTANTE
who sleeps with
a different guy
every night
but says she's

IN LOVE

with each one
is
off
the
HOOK?

P L E A S E

i could go farther
than this

the wife who does
not sleep with her
husband without
a goodie

or the girl who
sleeps with the guy
after two dates
MOVIES & RESTAURANTS
because he's
CUTE

i have an interesting
proposal

go up to a
complete stranger
and say

I . LOVE . YOU*

you wont.
you'd be fitted for

A . STRAIGHT . JACKET

I talk about the girls
But the guys are

JUST AS BAD
