When someone forgets to ask, then usually the forget to ask starts working both ways
She Just Stopped Asking
She poured herself a cup of coffee
Did her morning errands before the
Kids woke up
She fixed breakfast,
Whatever they would eat was
Fine with her, on to school
About her day was what was
On her mind
A quick kiss given, finally she was
Alone

How the roast was, didn’t offer him
wine, she just sat there
As if being somewhere else
He thought it all out
She Just Stopped Asking
