Cookery Nookery
Something's cooked up in your kitchen
Cracked a few bad eggs along the way
Forgetful when you seek to stray
Beware those fires you choose to stoke
Selfishness rewarded by the hearts you broke.
A recipe, flawed from the start,
frothy concoction of ill-matched parts,
chemistry no good for that particular souffle,
embarrassing tales, deflated it fails,
in a pathetic, pitiful, public way.
Unable to decide just what actions to make?
Ask me to sort consequences of your mistake?
Call my disconnected number no more
Texts ignored, before get too bored
Sorting your crap ...
Unfaithful, annoying, nookie-cookery chap.

Insanity, pure and simple.
Boredom, yes.
Did I need so badly to feel loved?
Why did I not just read a book,
or go to sleep
Who do you fool when you cheat
Nobody but yourself
With ruses and tricks to beat
The honest for top shelf
What is the price
