COULDN’T

I’m not pining. I’m just sayin’. . . he couldn’t be what he should’ve been.

he couldn’t
be faithful
be honest
be interested
be trustworthy
be a terrific dad
be dependable
be a great husband
be romantic
be a real man
be respectful
be in love with me alone
keep his pants on

he couldn’t
exude devotion
exude character
exude morals
exude integrity
exude love
exude security
keep it in his pants

he couldn’t
step up
tell the truth
love deeply
give all encompassing hugs
pamper me
truly support his family
let me be his one and only
man up
give love
stop cheating

I COULDN’T
WE COULDN’T
