He’s affectionate and loving when I’m with him.
He calls me romantic names.
He makes me feel like I’m the lady of his dreams.
Like a crazy teenager, he’d phone in the morning
and be the last to wish me goodnight.

But, then he disappears.
He turns cold on me.
He leaves me wondering what I have done.
He won’t answer my calls and SMSes.
He’s unreliable
unpredictable.

I schedule an appointment with him.
I cook him the best dinner.
I dress up to the nines.
But he’s late.
He doesn’t phone or SMS.

I call…
But he won’t pick up.
