His Destination In Life

He as a new playground
What more can I say
His ego he had to build
So he went off to play

My heart he destroys
A friend I shall remain
He went feeding his ego
He’s off playing again

Flirting more his style
Serious he cannot be
Wonder if other friends
Feel the same as me

I am that close friend
But what of his wife
Does he ever consider
His destination in life

theres a country song about "ordinary life"...this sounds much like that song...he takes for granted his ordinary life..yet, after he leaves she is happy to find that she and the kid "get by" ok in their ordinary life..

....hopefully, soon he'll figure out that ordinary life is not a bad thing...  

very nice write..

Ouch, this one hurts.  Wow, these are very interesting thoughts.  They never think about what happens if they are caught or they are so wrapped up in themselves to care, I'm not sure which it is.  Much truth here.  Thanks for sharing this.
