She'll call today I told her she'd be OK She said, that's what they all say. I told her, I'd be back She said forget it jack. I told her I loved her still She said now isn't that a thrill. I told her what I said was true. She said now isn't that a coup. I said goodbye she did not cry Nor did a tear appear her eye. I turned away and heard a scream And that's when I awoke the dream. My hand shot out the telephone I told her that I was alone She said I'll be right over dear Today it's only been a year. |

Man I hate it when that happens! Very good poem for delivering the truth about her petulant message. The point comes across very well and I like how it ends. If she calls you could say you were busy and that you'd just won a million dollars and had quite a busy schedule for at least the next forty years. I don't know????.......take care......ethome |

Even though, after reading this thread and finding that JanetMarie prefers another over me, I still like the poem... ![]() |

I'd say she forgot how to push those buttons, forgot your number, or she said she'd call in November, she just didn't say which November...James |
