'They're all the same', I remember Mum saying, <br />'Only after one thing - and if it means paying - they will' <br /> [ I think she had a low opinion of men ] <br /> <br />In a wild frenzied moment I forgot what she said <br />and I found myself groaning and writhing in bed <br />with a man who I thought might have felt something more.... <br />- than my chest. <br /> <br />Well he still hasn't called, <br />did I really expect him to <br />pick up the phone and say, 'Hey babe! I've missed you? ! ' <br /> <br />Of course I did <br />I'm a woman you see. <br />Not a cold blooded male <br />but a warm blooded Me. <br /> <br />So I sit <br />and I wait <br />'What a Rat, <br />What a Swine! <br />Men! <br />Huh. Never Again <br />Well maybe <br />Next time'.........<br /><br />Elizabeth Wychbury<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/perpetually-perpetual/
