Wise Men So Wise

And he said:

“That girl, on the screen -

Looks like your Ex..”

Yes, she did. Yes, she did.

..Remember the sex!

He said:

“Yeah, she was all right.”

And: “You know, one day 

you’ll look back

and say -

--Why did I ever leave THAT?!!”

Yes, I did. Yes, I did.

…Curiosity Kills Cat!

A psycho, a child-b***h

A prison, a blanket

A smotherer

A motherer

A crier

A whiner

A piner

A shiner, a beauty

A charmer

A dream 

A lover, a loser

And not all it may seem

And he’s right, that’s a fact

I’d still wish her back

When one day I’m dozing

And rocking and aging

And recalling old flames

And my mind playing games

With rose-tinted loneliness

And weak-hearted laziness

And all for the love ---

Of times gone by…

Why are wise men so wise?

(and they speak truth with spirit)

when deep down 

inside

no one really wants to hear it.

Ah!..I love how you expirement with your writing and always bring up something so new..so fresh in theme.

And my mind playing games
With rose-tinted loneliness
And weak-hearted laziness
And all for the love ---
Those lines..especially 'weak hearted laziness' is so perfect a phrase for those times one just wants to get back and reach out for someone in the past cause it is comfortable territory.
I think the same could be said for women too...sometimes we just justify ourselves,overanalyze..all futility of the over active mind..:)
well written..
