Here I sit alone again waiting for my friends, I’m early as usual.

Waiting long, waiting patiently for them to show, then to lunch we’ll go.

All the while feeling I shall have to go home, again alone.

However they’re always early when its my turn to own the bill.

For their time has come, and now alas, an hour longer has now past, and so this inanity now ends.

These people will bring my finances to ruin, these friendships can no longer be, thinking they will change, is insanity.
