An Infinite Parting
I stood there and just sobbed
as two police officers stood there
watching you pack your stuff
with you saying "don't touch my stuff"
You called them so that I wouldn't
frame you and turn you into the bad
guy and you didn't want to get arrested
so you called the police on me
you told them I wouldn't you leave you alone
yet as I put your belongings outside
willingly, you looked like a fool
Six feet tall and three hundred
pounds, why on earth would I keep
your stuff or try to hurt you
Inifinite partings
Not what I was promised
in the beginning
A week later I was good enough
to be your lover, friend, companion in life
I am still confused about it all
I guess you thought the grass was greener
on the other side of the fence
Well, the fence was rusted with wholes in it
but I guess you didn't know that until
you experienced it yourself
