so much introvert and reserved I am
my crazy nature! badly I behave
get angry at slightest provocation
why do I conceal myself in a cave

to share joy and win my friendship she tells
in my ears, stories of her private life
by e-mail she sends honeymoon photos
she knows I could become her husband's wife

why isn't she happy with my lover?
with me why would she maintain any link?
why at all she talks about her hubby?
she enjoys making me jealous, I think

I see everywhere teasing face of her
not to lose temper, solace I prefer
