Another Lesson

Folder: 
From Very Personal

she loved me
until i fell in love
with her best friend
now we sometimes have breakfast
the three of us
(because they live together)
and the croissants taste like pepper
whenever she thinks
she is looking right through me
...which is always
as for my love
a good coffee is a good coffee for her
and if she were in love with me
she would not be in such haste
to renew her passport
so she could travel to California
with her best friend

now, don't ask me any funny questions
don't come up with something like:
"Do they really taste like pepper?"

Baby,
that is the color of our pain
