They tried by action to be my teachers in matters of love
Note: Re-edit of “A song to failed relationship with women. Feb 2019
My songs are for the divorced women, widowed and singles with children.
Still sexually active unmarried women.
My songs are short stories
Lacking imagination, of a grateful man,
Short on feelings.
Songs for women, who tried by action to be my teachers in matters of love,
Loving and feelings unknown to me,
Much of them still a mystery to me.
Songs of remembrances, for my own sake,
Trying to connect the strings of feelings among these relationships.
Each song has a single heroine and a single name, as it should be.
Names of children are sometimes added,
My way of praying forgiveness for my lack of attention to them,
For most of the duration of the relationship.
My way to say that I am sorry for failing to consider
The integrity and totality of the heroine’s life.
My way of admitting that the deficiencies were all mine,
A man from the outside looking in
And ignorant of the new rules in this old game.
Songs for the women, who gave the best of their loving to men,
So Man could grasp the essence of life.
Songs for women, who need to be re-married for love,
With a man capable of learning a new gamut of feelings,
With a man thankful of discovering a wealth of emotions,
With a man becoming whole, lest the cynicism of old age creeps in.
