Not These DreamsA Poem by Teddybearlee
Not these dreams that awake me in tears
Of you telling me the sum of all of my fears Of leaving and cheating and never having loved Of not satisfying you or being like a sex god from above Not these dreams that make me lay wide awake Of you abusing me in the end with take take take take Of telling me I suck when we lay in the bed Of saying all you did just to f**k with my head Not these dreams that make me want to die in my sleep Promising me forever as you leave me for a creep Remembering how you always said you'll fight for all this And remembering how you always sealed it with a kiss Not these dreams where I'm left standing and speechless Coming home to an empty house, a home now meaningless Staring at the spaces we shared so many first times Looking in the dirty mirror and accepting all these lines Not these dreams where you tell me your f*****g someone else As I wordlessly hang up the phone understanding hell Why had my praying done nothing to ease my fall Why doesn't God get my messages when I try to call Not these dreams of living the rest of my life all alone But here we go, here I am, no settling for a clone Only you, only you had the key to my soul And for the rest of my life, to save us will be my goal My stupid quest, my foolish mission Supportless and abandoned By all of my friends They pity me, and I get it My trainwreck has a sad end I am only human I can only follow my heart And it still beats for you My nightlight in the dark © 2017 Teddybearlee |
