Eggs to Fry

Seems she couldn't
live with me,
but after I left
she couldn't live without me.
Perhaps I should
have tried harder
to please her
but I didn't even
know how to try.
"One less bell to answer,
one less egg to fry."

Last two lines
from the song
by the "Fifth
Dimension."

I found this to be an intresting read
  "One less egg to fry"
I guess thats about as optimistic as one can get in that situation. Enjoyed.

Oh, do I ever relate to this poem.=, especially the lines, "but I didn't even /
know how to try."
