for a little while

he’s asking what happened?

ah we fell apart (i try)

wanted different things

meaning?

she wanted another man

& i didn’t want her to go that way

being a prick he says next

& you thought it was love

as i recall (grinning)

i resist the urge to wipe that smirk

off’f that idiot face understanding

fools like this can never be educated

so i dry smile instead

yeah like you & that lulu woman?

her name was jane

going all frosty cold now

ah yes i called her that

as she liked the brand

brand? he asks

the label the designer tag

wasn’t suggesting you’d ever

put the iron or ink to her

she went her own way?

& here he gets all wistful

yeah y’know how it is

some we only love

for a little while

which ends that convo’

for a short bit
