Stranger in Bed

Title may sound like the poem is erotic, it's not haha.

Stranger in Bed

 

You could have had me

You’re so busy

Or you say you are

And that’s the reason

You’ll never try to pursue me

 

You’re going to lose me

And all you will be left with

Are your little activities

And you’ll never find someone

You’ll truly want to be with

Someone who you can come to

Someone you can lean on

 

So rely on work and school and friends

But at night, when you come home

You’ll come home to a cold house

And a girl you’ll never love

A girl who will never treat you right

Waiting for you in bed

 

Enjoy this life

And start regretting the mistakes

You’re making today

Because you can’t change the path

We’re clearly taking

The path that’s leading into tomorrow

And you can’t say one word

To make it better

I don’t buy sweet talk anymore

I don’t buy broken promises

And I don’t buy your lies

 

You can try to make me see what you want me to

But I just see the truth

And I’m done trying to make reality so bright

And I’m done trying to make our future so right

It is tearing our friendship apart

And we’re losing grasp of one another

 

But I’m so done with waiting

For you to open your eyes

And realise that your future happiness

Is smack in front of your face

And not in your work place, in your school work, or in your friends arms

You have to work for me, work at us, and then you’ll be embraced

 

Until then

Enjoy your empty bed

And enjoy your hand being your girlfriend

Because when the future comes

I’ll be gone

And you’ll have a stranger in your bed

A stranger you will never feel for

The way you did me

Author's Note

So I noticed I haven't written anything in maybe a week, or less. Not sure. But a friend made it seem like I haven't posted something new in forever. So here is a new poem. I'm sure many can relate to it.

Enjoy!

[Steven]

uhh.. so disappointing.

[Destinyxi]

Hopefully the person in the poem is and not the poem itself lol

[Steven]

no no, the TITLE. I was so excited!

[Destinyxi]

Oh, LOL. I said it in the description to not be fooled!

[Steven]

I was fooled ;). But yeah, this guy... sounds boring.

[Destinyxi]

haha, agreed

[Baby Ricochet]

I at least get their name first

[Destinyxi]

Smart idea Baby :P

[kublakhan27]

Well, there is certainly a snarl running through this one...you always know how to get your point across, whatever the subject matter may be haha Nice job as always, Kels :)

[Destinyxi]

Thank you Steve. And definitely snarling in this one

[kublakhan27]

I can't say I blame you :(

[Androglossia]

I read this out loud for my partner and she started crying. Heck, what did I do??She might have liked it so much.. eheh:)

[Destinyxi]

Why did she start crying??

Thanks for your review

[Jason]

Wow, really nice. I loved reading this. :)

[Destinyxi]

I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your review!

[gombeggar]

something to be said of a woman scorned no matter the reasoning...and that's usually run like hell

[Destinyxi]

Haha, damn good advice to all men :P Thanks for your review as usual!

[John Stussy]

FINALLY a new poem! Huzzah! And it's a well written one too, I must say. Of course, that tends to always be the case with your writing. This was another awesome, biting piece. Once you've reached a certain level of bullshit with someone, enough is enough even when they say they'll try for better. Let them live with the regret and memories of what they had. Awesome poem Kelsia, glad to have read a new piece by you. You're one of the most talented writers I've read on here, and it's always a pleasure to read your writing.

[Destinyxi]

yes finally haha. You're the one I have to thank for it though. Pushing me to write something new xD

I'm glad you liked this poem Johnny boy. Seems like I always have a little bit of bite in me ;)

[John Stussy]

What, me being bossy and demanding more words from you? :P You're the mastermind behind your work, it's your own fault you write awesome stuffs. And I rather like a bit of bite in a gal. :P

[Destinyxi]

mhm exactly that!

I never agreed I write awesome stuff. BUT I shall take your compliment ;)

and bite/fire in a girl or even a guy is damn sexy haha

[John Stussy]

Sheesh lass, I was just being bossy. :P

Can't agree more, that bit of fiestiness makes for some interesting situations.

[Destinyxi]

Haha I know you were. But hey it got me to write this poem ;)

That's very true. :)

[John Stussy]

Ooooh, maybe I should boss you around more often, even if I do get bit. ;)

[Destinyxi]

lool boss me around often and I'll smack you.

[John Stussy]

Hmmmm.... Still might be worth it. Make me a sammich! >:)

[Destinyxi]

HA you're funnnyyy

[John Stussy]

I said... Make. Me. A Sammich.

[Destinyxi]

now if you were asking me to do something else, you might have sounded sexier, but you pick the most typically popular sexist thing :P

[John Stussy]

I was just trying to see how far I could push my bossiness. Apparently that's too far. Besides, I wouldn't demand something... else, in a comment. :P

[Destinyxi]

ahahaha some would

[John Stussy]

I'm a well behaved gentleman pretty lass... At least, in public... for the most part... ;)

[Destinyxi]

Lol, that's the civil thing to do :P

[John Stussy]

Aye, so goes the rumor. :)

[Destinyxi]

sociology my boy :P social 'norms/rules' xD

[John Stussy]

Haha thank you for educating the college dropout. :P

[Destinyxi]

haha sorry... teaching is gonna be my job.. might as well get used to it now ;)

[John Stussy]

It's ok, you're adorable when you're in teaching mode. ;)

[Destinyxi]

why thank you :)

[John Stussy]

You're welcome, though I'm just stating the obvious. :)

[Destinyxi]

are not.

[John Stussy]

Am too, anyone would agree. Or maybe I'm just hot for teacher. Who knows? :P

[Destinyxi]

Haha. I was definitely hot for teachers in high school, and college too :P

[John Stussy]

I could imagine haha.
