Once Again, Never

Down on his knees
Looking up into my eyes
….he cried
“I never meant it to be like this,
never meant to hurt you,
would have stayed
made you my wife….”
Taking one cool glance
into those eyes
drifting swiftly out the window
I could have told this tale
Months ago….
years ago.....
What the fuck, don’t I know?
Don’t I know it by now?
Another man got no time,
No time for a life….
All business strife,
Where do you come from,
I am running undone
By myself’
Once again…
