The Final Edition

Our 6 month fling he threw away
Like yesterday's newspaper.
Without any regard to how I would feel
because he wasn't willing to read anymore.

He used to love my Local Section
daily monitoring my inner city news.
He kept up with my State Section too
making sure not to look over any of my major areas.

He read my Sports Section daily
Keeping up with the latest highlights.
The Business Section he always read first
He says "Handle your business 1st & then you can play all you want."

My Entertainment section was one of his favorites
he made sure to visit all the hotspots in the area.
He even paid attention to my editorial page
like what I thought really meant something to him.

Then one day maybe he thought he saw us in the obituaries
or maybe he glanced at the marriage announcements and panicked.
Maybe he read the family section
and decided to give his son's mom another try.

Whatever the case he threw me away
like yesterday's newspaper.
Didn't even bother to pick up today's
counting on tomorrow's edition to be better.

This is the final edition of la cosa nostra
Goodbye
