Get rid of him

I didn’t have to ask

Just had to read between the lines

 

I didn’t have to look far

It was written all over your face

Slipped out of your lips

Came so naturally

Flowed from your heart

Broke mine in two

 

You got a boyfriend

Get rid of him

You got a man

Dump him

 

It’s no surprise that there is a man in your life

With your killer legs

And your killer smile

Your perfect looks

And your perfect tastes

It’s no surprise there is someone in your life

 

I could search to the ends of the earth and I wouldn’t find someone like you

I could march all across the world and still wouldn’t find a sole like you

All the nice ones are taken

 

So you have a boyfriend

Does he make you laugh like I do

And make you smile like I do

Does he listen like I do

And take care of you as I do

 

So you have a boyfriend

Pray to God I don’t meet your boyfriend for I know I don’t like him already

Hope to God I don’t bump into your boyfriend for I know I dislike him already

 

You got a boyfriend

Get rid of him

You got a man

Dump him

 

You, me and your boyfriend are a typical recipe for disaster

You me and your man are a hurricane waiting to happen

 

Don’t mean to be mean to a brother but this is the way things were meant to be

You’re the one I was meant to be with

You’re the one I was meant to live with

You’re the one I was meant to share to

You’re the only one I was meant to grow old with

 

If you have a boyfriend, I wonder

What does that make me?

I love your style! It's only the second poem that I read from you but I recognize myself in your writing. Happy to 'virtually' meet you, Glee!

The other man? Great write - to get rid of some pent-up frustration! Having been on both sides of that fence at one time or another, I can understand that frustration and that thrill. There is an old saying, though...if you can steal a person from someone else, they can be stolen from you. Keep that in mind, dear one, and keep your heart close.
