WHEN [ex becomes EX]
WHEN [ex becomes EX]
What ? crossed your mind
Seeing your ex -husband or wife
The frequency of meeting, is a enigma
Sterile
Benighted
Benign
But to see them again
Is worth a stagnant smile
A satire played out to protect
A person that use to live with a broken heart
Mind over matter
Is a lie ?
Without truth as a factor
So if to look into their eyes
What in a stagnant smile
Will the truth find
Remember between love and hate
Is a thin line
So that ex ?
Will become EX
If a piece of paper will decide
Ok to the reader , I seen my ex-wife the other day . We rarely see each other [ OK no I didn't cheat or her & no no no to any other things to]
But it was surreal ? how ex became EX ! because I don't even know how she spends her days. But ironically we didn't make eye contact
[ mind over matter]. It's been over ten years apart . And still only a stagnant smile on both of our parts Mind over matter
Is a lie ?
Without truth as a factor
