I was having a cup of coffee with a friend of mine this afternoon. He is a nice guy who unfortunately is going through a divorce. After a long time of separation, he still has feelings for his wife. His problem is that he has had such a difficult time letting her go. Despite all his wife’s effort to let him know that she does not want him anymore, he is still having a hard time hearing the clear message and accepting it. So I asked him: “what else do you want her to do? Shove a grenade up your ass for you to get it?!”
We talked a bit more and then we parted. I came home and wrote this. It is, sort of, his story.
When you look into her beauty with all your heart, caressing her hair. She gives a look back at you and says: “you’re a Jackass”.
You’re not wanted.
What else do you want her to do? Shove a grenade up your ass?
When you look for a kiss but all you get is a story of how others made a pass.
You’re not wanted.
What else do you want her to do? Shove a grenade up your ass?
When she calls you all the names in the book, rips your shirt and breaks your eyeglass.
You’re not wanted.
What else do you want her to do? Shove a grenade up your ass?
When she yells: “Hey mother fucker”, as your name, with zeal and hate all amass.
You’re not wanted.
What else do you want her to do? Shove a grenade up your ass?
When your presence makes her embarrass, but when you leave she is disembarrass.
You’re not wanted.
What else do you want her to do? Shove a grenade up your ass?
When she is polite, courteous, or even nice, but you know, to her, you are nothing but frass.
You’re not wanted.
What else do you want her to do? Shove a grenade up your ass?
When you’re only a tool and not a man, treated like a piece of wood or even fiberglass.
You’re not wanted.
What else do you want her to do? Shove a grenade up your ass?
When will you learn? Today? Tomorrow?
When is the right time to let go and let this all pass?
I pray it is before the grenade explodes inside your ass….
