SHe was her neighbour from next door
SHe's been her best friend since age four
a chubby faced angel with long hair,she always thought they'd be the golden girls
Their hair is all trimmed the same,brown contact in both' eyes
still they wouldn't spare her a glance
SHe gets all the guys,even hers
She cries deep into the night wondering why...
Men's heads turn even when they had dates on their arms
SHe gets warnings,never punishment...SHe only needs to smile
SHe's got them freezing like shallow pond in winter
the temptress could get away with anything,only needs to bat them 'lashes too
Until he said 'hello'...he actually spoke her name
she's all smiles and giddy because they connect
its just her he likes
they sit out and chat for long whiles
late nights spent knowing her
he comes late from work,still rushes to her
they getting so deep in love and she hoped somehow...
but of course the temptress wouldn't rest
her best friend is @ it again!
chumming up to him,the soft whispers of sweet nothings
the smiles & laughs & sultry looks
the jokes & gentle sway of HEr hips
it works every time,SHe has them purring in no time
Playpen through senior secondary
First year through convocation
SHe sure has character...it's called cheap stunts
this temptress never rested until SHe took away her man that ever mattered...
Writer's note - I hope i didn't confuse you with my 'SHe' and 'she' usage. It was the best way I knew to differentiate the friends without ruining the rhymes...'SHe' is the temptress and 'she' the best friend
Friends sometimes do silly stuffs like that, no respect for the friendship they have with others. My mom always told me "family is far better than friends" and learnt that in a hard way. Well, she should move on and someday a man who will love her for real will come along. Nice concept- poetic licence. Sheun
ReplyDeleteVery true my sister, some people just want to have it all but family being far better than friends? Hmmm...immediate family or extended? I think we should explore that some more. I shall see you in camera.
ReplyDeleteYour comments are always refreshing, thanks a bunch.
You are welcome dearie. Family as in immediate not that they are all nice but there's something about the blood. Some friends are far better than family but rare.
