Bed of Filth

Lying on that bed

The best I ever had

Except , not anymore.

The sheets torn off

And..naked all around

As if I knew….

I just knew

This would all come to an end

The paint so new

We were going to start something

We could have grew

But we were side by side

And it never felt right

Instead in my mind

I just wanted to be free

You never did see

The pain behind my eyes

As I cried on the bed

Beside you and your lies

The naked bed

All so full circle

And slightly ironic

This would all come to an end

This would all be over soon

I just never would know

Until it was gone

How much I needed this

How much you needed this

I had to cut the strings

And let them fall

I wish you could have seen the pain

Behind my eyes, but you shut me down

As if crying was a crime

You sat next to me

On this naked bed

All so full circle

And slightly ironic

This bed of filth

No more.

"You never did see

The above lines could stand alone. Thank you for sharing the outstanding and worthwhile poetry.
