Darling, just save your breath
I always hated the
sound of my name
stifled, passing
through your teeth.
Whenever you uttered
terms of endearment
they all seemed forced
all the meaning
was spoiled.
So you might as well
keep your excuses
because your words
never amounted to anything
they just drove
you deeper into trouble.
I love you so much more
when you don't speak-
there are so many
other ways for you
to use that
pretty little mouth.

This write is great! Men are very stereo typical but in alot of ways it's true and that's painful in itself.
