What She Said

This is for Raymond G Taylor's "Oh Jeff, I Love You Too But.." Challenge

Introduction

This is for Raymond G Taylor's "Oh Jeff, I Love You Too But.." Challenge based on the detail from the Lichtenstein painting and you can read about it and enter below

The music is Tracey Ullman's cover of the Kirsty McColl song "You Broke My Heart In Seventeen Places (Shepherd's Bush Was Only One)"

This is just a light-hearted piece inspired by the challenge and the song.

What She Said

"Oh, Jeff... I love you too... but..."

Ah, but what? she's got my name wrong again (it is Mike), there's always someone better than me. I just took her for a weekend in Monaco, cost me a fortune, all champagne and caviar and a penthouse suite.

No sex, of course, she always had an excuse, headache, tired, and then stayed up all night watching her favourite soaps.

And now we're back she has something (probably someone) more important than me, but I know she will be back when I have my next weekend in Paris or Berlin, the I will be her true love until we touch down at the airport again.

Maybe I should go back to New York and stay there and delete her from my contacts.

I am sure someone loves me, somewhere.

As Felix Dennis once said (though I may be wrong here),

"When You Become Rich, You Cannot Make New Friends"

Though I will never follow that because I do, rightly or wrongly, trust people
