went over for the afternoon
light lunch then a pub crawl
in the old town places
we’d been in our youf’
couple of jars in
i’m joking asking
this mid-life time
where was the crisis?
he looks hard at me
tells me he wants more
is what we all want i say
with a crooked smile
no no he says me & her
all i got now is moments
we used to be so good
but now moments
is all it is all we got
i’ve run out of energy
the desire i once had
to try harder put the work in
& she seems much the same
he catches my eye my look
& before you try to start
this is not growing up
this is terminal if it goes on
i’ve forgotten btw
is this your round or mine?
& bless i’ve forgotten too
