Why Not Mean What You Say

Breakdown in communication
You did say was momentary
I went looking up the word
As appears in my dictionary

You cannot mean momentary
Because it began weeks ago
True meaning of that word
It appears you did not know

Misrepresentation of the facts
Why not mean what you say
Your words are misleading
It certainly appears that way

Momentary is the wrong word
Maybe you meant indefinitely
As you have no time spare
It appears theres none to me

It unfortunately starts a long time ago before we realise

When we married I could place my hands around your waist

Now I can't even get them around your throat (not a suggestion for trying)

A woman can keep the same figure as when she was married

The problem is getting the pins out

Take care Hope and hopefully laugh
