Did You Forget Something

Minding my own business 

Meeting you on the outs 

I truly had no idea

what you really were about

...….…............

Where -we’d- end up 

after our eyes touched, 

I didn’t have a clue 

 

Was just a woman running errands

Wasn’t thinking about a man

Especially NOT you 

…..............................

Time stopped 

We chopped it up 

 

little was said 

It didn’t take that much

.........................

Hours

days 

weeks went by 

 

you treated me like a lady

Sooooo smooth

and sooooo

fly

 

My thoughts

carried the WEIGHT of you 

 

My heart beats

was HARD

as it danced for you

 

My body ached and pained

as it was craving you

.......................................

Spontaneously 

the moment came 

 

For sure

I was gonna make you

call out my name 

 

Similar iPhones 

laying side-by-side

 

A call came in 

and it wasn’t from mine

 

A WEDDING PIC

APPEARED 

on yo screen

Right side up

It was clearly seen

 

You became puzzled 

by my ANGER

and my STRIFE

 

Nick-Ka-Nac, 

Baby love

 

Did you forget something? 

 

Maybe the MENTION of

WIFE???????
