When you look at me do you wish I were her?
When we make love is it she that you see?
When you smile in your sleep and sigh in bliss
Is it her in your dreams or me?
When you stare off in the distance, with that look on your face
Like you are somewhere completely away from here
I know it is her that you are thinking of
Wishing so much that she was near
Do you notice my distance, see my yearning?
When you touch me do you see me shy away?
Each night when I dream and he is right by my side
I fear in my sleep his name I will proclaim
When the night’s get quiet and there’s no words exchanged
Do you recognize the pain on my face?
Do you not realize that deep down it’s him that I want
That your mediocre love could never take his place?
Does she ask you about me, if you still think of me?
Knowing the past that we have shared
Is it awkward at home with the two of you,
Knowing my ghost still abides there?
Does she wonder where you are when you don’t come home?
On those nights that we rendezvous
Has she diluded herself into thinking it’s fine
When deep down I still am a part of you?
I see her leaving when I drive by your home
Checking to see if you’re there
I wonder where she goes when she leaves you alone
So I follow to see where
I keep far enough behind so that she does not see
As I follow the woman who has taken my place
Why does she leave so often, every night at the same time
As she pulls to her destination my heart begins to race
How could this be, she is she
The object of his affection
The reason she doesn’t question you of us
Is because it’s her secret she worries of protecting
He loves her but lies in my bed
While I dream of you when my eyes close
Little did we know that while we lived our own secret
In this small world what goes around comes back three fold.
This may be a bit confusing, and I’m thinking it’s all wrong. I have been reading quite a bit about jealousy and hearing quite a bit about love triangles. Each color separates a different person or situation in this poem, where two lovers who are cheating find that their significant others have found love with eachother…..I don’t know it may be taken down as soon as I realize it’s more confusing then good.
