one thing I won't do

Dear love I’m sorry for ignoring you.
It’s just that I had a very bad day today.
I didn’t even went out for lunch.
What more can I say?

Office politics to got the better of me.
I had to stay with friends after hours to ease stress.
Our manager then came back unannounced and,
whined about how we’ve broken company policy.
Blurted that we owe management an apology.

Apart from that, yours truly told him face to face;
Maureen, a colleague of mine,has been flirting with I
for some time.
I’ve been trying to avoid her without success.
Now she’s threatening to send hit men to I
to take my life away.

She’s also seeing the very manager
who threatened to expel us--
unless we apologise to all our colleagues,
for partying on company's premises 
without his consent. 

And you,besides threatening to kill yourself,
that if I ever left you alone you'd do it and,
those who never knew you would blame me,
has got me wishing that I had never met you.

I saw you in bed with him last night.
I don't want to say I caught you with him,
no, no, that just won't make any sense to me.
Don’t ask me who or why I chose to walk out
on you two but,
just pretend that it didn't happen and,
I was never there.

I’ve been warning you that one day your deeds will
come up in the open.
As things stands, I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.
And that’s becoming a problem for my mental state because
when a person isn’t sure about how he’s feeling,
That when he’s likely to do something horrendous.
Either to himself or others.

I just don’t want to hurt you, your friend my manager.
All I want out of this life is peace.
Something I’m hardly to get so long as I’m with all of you.
Now, there’s one thing I won’t do;
leaving my job because of any three of you.
I don’t know if you’ve met and discussed me but,
It feels like it’s the case.
