Poetry Affair

by Dee   Jul 20, 2005


From a room within my house
I hear the creaking of a bed
The one my husband sleeps in
While I write poems to clear my head

As I sit here all alone
Pouring out my heart
The sun will soon be rising
He doesn't know we are apart

The affair I am having
With this poetry website
Makes me feel deceptive
Fills me full of fright

Will he wake up and ask me
for a sample reading
Or will he just lie back there
Unknowing of my deceiving

Unfaithful I am
Unleashing my feelings inside
He is too blind
He will never realize

No matter what I say to him
He is oblivious
My poetry on this website
Is so mysterious

I sit on this computer
And write down how I feel
But when he is awake with me
He believes our love is real

How can he be so naive
Could he really think things are right
When he lays in bed alone
I am nowhere in sight

To him this is normal
For me it is absurd
He doesn't know a thing about love
And don't you say a word

I have always told him
I have given every chance
He doesn't really care
Of love or romance

So in a room inside my house
And the creaking of the bed
Is just a constant reminder
Of a love that is surely dead
