This is another collaboration with my friend Hastywords. We seem to be on the same wavelength, poetrywise, and it is great fun to write with her! We hope you like it. There may be slight differences, so read hers too!
When Forever Lies
It pains me to see that look
Unfolding behind your eyes
Desire for someone else
Fueling a passion full of lies
It hurts for me to see you stare
And smile so blissfully
At someone across the room
When you’re sitting next to me
It’s not just your choice of clothes
Or the secrets locked in your smile
It’s the mysterious glimmer in your eyes
Things I haven’t seen in awhile
Am I not enough for you
Be honest with me
Is someone out there all the things
That I could never be
Marriage was never our guarantee
So I am no longer the person I used to be
Always trying to be your everything
You changed the very core of me
We said we’d always be together
We said forever and swore
Til death do we part, and we do
But you don’t anymore
So here I sit watching you
Seeing promises in her you want to keep
I’m now your version of me
And feeling I settled far too cheap
Hastywords & Edward Hotspur
In case you are very sad, watch this
Love Tiesto and I really like this song.
This was a sad poem, and it needed a happy ending
Everything needs a happy ending!
It sure does, and I don’t even mean in the massage way!
I was thinking in the fairy tale way
Oh, I’m sure you were. Me too.
No….no I wasn’t….
LOL… make up your dirty mind.
Did you seriously just ask a woman to make up her mind????
If you’re my alter ego, you can do it! Lol. Women make up their minds all the time. Several times a minute.
Yea we are resilient that way!
So the trick for a guy is to wait until the woman lands on something the guy likes, and then stick his fingers in his ears and act on that decision, ignoring what comes after.
See – perfect example. I asked my wife if I was better than bacon and she said yes. That’s decisiveness right there.
Let’s do a happy one next!
We probably should. But it seems like sad ones are easier to write. Hmmmm
Moving. I had a movement.
Stop reading my blog on the throne, will ya?
But it works.
So… you’re a plumber…
I would say you are.
I’m flush with ideas.
Put a lid on it. And wipe away those tears. You are on a roll. You are also on the skids.
Looks like you have a handle on things
Two ply, don’t bother me…
Yes do a happy one together! This is like oh; Hot wings and (real) ranch dressing .Works real well. Seamless,There is two of you writing right?
Two physical people, yes. How many personalities, who knows?
I am really just Edwards female alter ego
It’s getting crowded in there! LOL
