To No Avail

“To No Avail”

Getting shot down all the time
Seeking for time to be mine
Wanting mine, I get on the phone line
Phone rings BUT…
To no avail.

Being friends is the rule
We broke a rule or two and that’s cool
But is it cool for me to act a lil like a fool?
I try to answer it BUT…
To no avail.

I try to reach out to you
Because it’s something bout you I only seen in a few
But even in those few you are a different hue
I try to adjust it BUT…
To no avail.

By no means am I falling in love with him
For “him” is a friend, not in a pool with “them”
But even with them, I try to trim
Down to ONE BUT…
To no avail.

I admit the events happening in my life
Have my mind as busy as the New Jersey Turnpike
I know this stanza don’t resemble the last and the like
I tried to make it so BUT…
To no avail. (LOL)
