modern Romance can be strange
with each seeing others at the same time
even while in a relationship;
but it’s always been the same:
the guys never get it

like yesterday my love, strong Tom,
he told me:
‘Sweet Ann, I’ve kept something from you;
I must tell you the truth now:
I’m seeing a psychiatrist’

And I thought, as he was being honest
I should be honest too
and so, I said:
‘Oh my Tom – I’ll tell you the truth:
I’m seeing a plumber, a doctor and a mechanic’

And I don’t understand these men
and their double standards;
Tom just stormed out
