Are you married? He asks
Yes but....
All preface and pretense
Human and conditional
Yes but....
He is never home
Yes but....
She doesn’t touch me
Like you
Yes but.....
I’m tired/he’s tired/she’s tired/we’re tired
Yes but.....
He doesn’t believe
in GodMoneyNatureLove
Me
(Please don’t Leave)
Yes but ......
Yes but .......
Longing and lust for anything
But
Excuse
