SELFISH
He lays there while
I give & give...
When he comes
he goes
& I'm forced to admit
that while giving him pleasure
I've smiled & savored...
But why does he not
try returning the favor?
Why does he only swing
by after drinks?
Is that asking too much?
Who knows what he thinks?
Because he doesn't talk
& that isn't good...
He never called back
when he said he would...
This could be the end
& if so I'll survive...
I did all I could to keep
our life alive...
But I can't send him flowers
each time he won't answer...
I can't call his number;
that isn't the answer...
The answer is this -
It's up to him now...
He can just walk away...
But if he wants to stay
he'll deliver the shiver;
He'll make it work somehow.
