but at the station; both in their own car
they swapped the turns with child care
the routine was working so far
He was to have them overnight Tuesday
then every other weekend
her solicitor having won the case
so the hours he couldn't extend
These meetings like KGB "Dead Drops"
a "hand-over" where nothing was said
"no arguing in front of the children!"
it all had to go via the solicitor instead
She said he'd been having an affair
which he said was totally untrue
her brief said that he had some photos
with which he could tighten the screw
So sat in their cars; the fairy tale ends
on this "once-upon-a-time" love affair
in a station carpark the final page turned
no "happily ever after" for this pair
...that
made two children togther
now living separate lives elsewhere
