I Am The Bridge

I'm tired of being the rebound guy which I help girls find their next real boyfriends while I'm just being used.

I feel like I am the bridge
To help my ex's find their next real boyfriends
I knew all along that I was the rebound guy
But I still wanted to give it a try
I was living in a lie
I knew all along
She didn't want to be with me long
She just wanted to be with someone
It could have been anyone
We make love all night
We cuddle and I'll feel alright
But there's something in her eyes
That doesn't seem right
There's someone else in her mind
I knew she was never meant to be mine
I'm holding her in my arms
And I'm thinking how much time
Do I have left
When she finally leaves
For a guy who is better than me
She doesn't want to feel guilty
So she want's to remain friends
I'm sorry but this is where it ends
I can't pretend
To not have feelings
I thought our love had meaning
I was used as a crutch
For her to get over her real love
Damn I had enough
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened
I feel like I am the bridge
For girls to cross over
To find a new lover
While I'm just a left over
I suffer
While another man bangs her
Oh well I shouldn't dwell on the past
I did my best
Even though I was the rebound
At least we had sex

I'm sorry, man. :/ Great poem, I can almost feel the simmering anger beneath the helplessness in your words. Nobody likes to be walked on and some are unluckier than others in the matters of the heart. I wish you peace and hope you find an awesome girl who won't use you as a bridge to someone else she wants.

Ohmyfreakinggosh,dude this is my favorite of yours! I totally can relate since a relationship I was in was basically for him to get over the fact that he really liked my best friend(of that time)! How twisted, right?! Don't worry, how these girls treat you will one day pay off. I know that doesn't probably make any sense or hard to think that way. But I know from being a guy's second choice all of my life, that there's atleast one guy that'll make his one and only choice. That's the same advice for you too! I just knew when I was with him, that when he was thinking--it wasn't about me. The reason we broke up is because we were better off "friends", than me trying to hold onto him for dear life from my flirty friend. Great write! :))
