An Intermittent Rule of Thumbs

Please try and sever all your stupid ties

because she's so not into, you!

A heart that's died,
can't be denied,

it might be that it's your "cue"!

It's never going to get easier

so keep your cards close to the vest.

Put away that cross,
and start hitting the "sauce",

you can't beat 'em, so join the rest!
