On Being "BAD"

He says...you know what she says?
I say, "not sure I want to know"
At times I think the other "she"
Must hate me, my thoughts flow....

He says...you won't believe it but
She  says  my problem is...
I said  "MY problem?"
No he says, it's  mine she says that is...

You have two women at this time
That's why you're so confused
I said to him "NO KIDDING!!!!"
But I am the one to lose...

That I'm sure she realizes
And that it is her fault...
And yours for not completing "ours"
Before your lies were caught.

I'm being very nice to her
I  gave for her a gift...
A scarecrow decoration made
To try to smooth  the rift.

I figure that the nicer I am
The more he can't deny
He still has years of feelings for me
Though he makes me cry.

Tonight I fed him, once again
He asked for money though
I said "I'll only supply your  needs"
He said that's not enough dough.

It won't pay her bills, he said
I offered,  to share some more.
But put my foot down, otherwise
Her bills were there, before.

All alone now, but buy in bulk
With him and her, I'll split,
Food and paper goods for now
But that's about it...

I can't believe, he even thinks
After leaving me like this
That I will make life easy for him
To have his life of bliss...

I've planned it out, I know him well
So many years of WE.
He'll feel the guilt of leaving me
Eventually she'll see...

And understand there is a link
Forever in our hold
She may have him physically
But I still wear his gold....

I know what it's like to still feel connected, to still need someone you love even after they are gone...so we desperately hold on.  When my wife left me she would let me see her about once a month and it would be so nice seeing her again and touching her.
And finally I realized she was not mine any more and gathered the strength to go on...Finally was a long, long time...James
