When is an Ex
an EX, she asked
When you stop
wishing you could
Just pick up the
phone
Because you know
that she loved you
In spite of yourself
And that her advice
is sound
When is an Ex an
Ex , she asked
When you can no
longer recall
The love that
shined
in her eyes
Whenever they
followed you
Around the room
Fulfilling her
heart's visual quest
When is an Ex an
Ex, she asked
When you are contented
To keep her a
cherished memory:
You can take her
photos, cards and poems
And look at them
through
More smiles than
tears
When is an Ex an
Ex, she asked
When you are sitting
on the plane
Flying to your
new lover's arms
And you say goodbye
Giving yourself
permission
To love again.
