Ex-Girl  by Jon Wallace                                               

 

Everything

We used to

Sing off key

About

 

Love we used

To dream lazily

About

Lasting

I’m just asking

Is that the

reason

I’m fasting?

Just drifting?

Time’s passing-

I dream awake

For that season

Everlasting.

 

But spring is gone

Time moved on

You know I know

I was wrong.

 

Flesh ain’t strong.

It’s weak!

It  lasts about a week.

Then its dead and forgotten

N’ people have forgotten

All about that person

 Can the situation worsen?
