Yeah, smile now


Don't worry, it will change.
Smile all you want now.
You have no idea what is in store.
It seems like a good idea.
It sure sounds romantic.
A nice ocean side thing.
Soon she will ask for contradictions.
She will want you to be both strong and weak.
She will want you to be both left and right.
She will want you to be both up and down.
And when you can't make the sun shine out of her ass,
It will be your fault for not trying hard enough.
See that is the thing that still bugs me sometimes.
Even though I don't have to deal with it anymore.
The expectation of needing to fulfill both sides of contradiction.
Make it light out, as long as it stays dark.
Then the next day make it dark out, as long as it stays light.
Be tall as long as you stay short, and of course, the opposite.
This innocent Joe has no idea of the contract he just signed.
They call it a "Certificate of Marriage", but it was a contract.
And everything she says along the way will turn out to be lies.
She is not as nice as you are thinking at this moment.


Good luck when you become her contradiction pal.

"And when you can't make the sun shine out of her ass, It will be your fault for not trying hard enough." So far, my absolute favorite line from your entire blog. It is exactly how I feel today about my soon-to-be EX.

It is very rare that a comment gives me a belly laugh. "Not a nice poem for this day" did.

What a great looking group. Love all the blues and the bouquet. Not a nice poem for this day.
