Funny Relationship

They say money talks,

But it’s like we’re always in malice

Cause for some reason she doesn't really talk to me.

This constant vexation is now a monthly cycle and I just can’t manage

Physically and psychologically she has left me damanged

I get the silent treatment and abandonment

The mixed emotions of joy and loss as she came and went. . .

She didn't tarry too long,

Our relationship started strong

And I’m still not sure what went wrong

Now this back and forth and I can’t understand. . . 

What is her plan?

She has already left me a broken man

And now I get jealous seeing her with a next man

While she just laughs in my face moving from hand to hand

And yet when I approach she refuses my hand.

I can see why she’s called the root of all evil

Torturing me so heinously, we can’t even be cordial, can’t act civil

As soon as we get close we’d start to argue

And she’d simply say, “You know why I don’t stay, 

Bills need me more and come first anyway,

I have no time for you; you don’t need me like Bills do.”

And I think she might be right.

We’re never together long enough for me to know her,

For me to get to understand her

Or to show her the reverence that she commands.

trying to understand her laws of supply and demand, 

But I know the reality, she’s in short supply and my wants in great demand.

So each month I try my best to entice her to stay,

But each month the same games to play

And money smiles as she runs away.

We both know, come this month, she will be mine for at least two days
