I'm with Andy on this one. The guy sounds like a real dick. I recently got a dear John email after 20 years and I've been writing about it a lot. Some songs; some poems; it helps and I'm sure that I am a long way from over it but the road to healing is a long one if there was any love there at all.

I love the lyric and can feel/sense the anguish. I can relate in an offhand kind of way. I'm gonna go check out your SC site and see if it's up there.

Kudos to ya and it takes time. Hang tough and never settle. Your heart deserves better.

I wrote this poem for people like that

Monkey Business

No more monkey business 'cause I'm finished with you
I've got no axe to grind and I've got nothing else to prove
I'm tired of payin' fifty dollars for your penny point of view
I've got everything to gain and I've got nothing left to lose

Head out to the highway and let your engine sing
Take your fancy watches and your diamond wedding ring
You tell me that you love me then you're nasty and you're mean
When it's all said and done... you haven't said or done a thing

Now it's lights out... nobody's home
Find some other fool who wants to carry your load
Take your weight off of my shoulders... get your monkey off my back
'Cause I'm rollin' down the road and I'm never lookin' back

Later rockin' lady,
Danny

The heart has its reasons, of which reason knows nothing of." —Blaise Pascal, 1670
