Misunderstood

Misunderstood

A Poem by Paul Bell

What’s so hard about the split
You take the house
I get Jack s**t
You get the cat
I paid for that
Have the car
Take the boat
If it makes you happy
Build a moat
All this fuss about a fling
Didn’t mean a thing
Keep the bling
Psychological strain
Well yes, you have been a bit of a pain
Actually driving me insane
But don’t worry dear
I’ll take it like a man
Know you’ll understand
Take a pill
Chilax
Listen to the facts
I was weak
Seduced by the meek
Was really thinking of you
As you do
Lets start again
Bought you a ring
Just a little thing
To say i love you
Oh, can i borrow the car
Not going far
Probably won’t be back tonight
Hope that's alright.

' Know you’ll understand ~ Take a pill ~ Chilax ~
Listen to the facts ~ I was weak ~ Seduced.. '

'Ouch and ouch again, then - a sigh of relief - thank the immortals, he's not mine! Guess this is tongue in cheek but more than true in so many cases.. and of course, is gender transferable. i mean to say, some women can wander.. and do it far too well!

Great write however caustic. Certainly not mythical.

I blame the parents. lol
love the ending...all that apology and regret because she is gone...all done while knowing full-well that if she takes him back he will do the exact same thing...
thanks for the smile.

That man's a cad, in a devilish way.
A split decision? Seems a bit one-sided though...ah well, clever, well-written poem with great rhyming sarcasm and humour! When love morphs into a casting of lots, it becomes the theater of the absurd- been there myself. Paul, I wish you and yours a very Happy, Healthy, Hopeful- and Humorous(?) New Year!!
