glistening
morning dew
the sky
a golden hue
you’re in bed
with someone new
you are in love
with only you
you say we’re done playing
this hurtful little game
ruining the reputations
of both our names
but when I suggest
we start taking things serious
you respond by telling me
that you are still curious
about the bodies with which
you haven’t yet had sx
every time you say it, you break me
like I’m one of your objects
you think I don’t know you?
we’ve already met
took me a while
didn’t realize at the outset
your face is different
now you’re a brunette
but the game’s always the same
and it hasn’t changed yet
say whatever you can
just to make her wet
say what she wants to hear
and what you want, you’ll get
“tell her she’s the only one you’re talking to
her dress might hit the floor”
“tell her that you care
she might let you make her sore”
“tell her you can’t breathe without her
she might let you go hrdcre”
“but if you tell her that you love her……….
then you’re guaranteed to score”
so I know what you do
and I know who you are
and right now you’re in bed
with Red Crop Top from the bar
she’s still sleeping so you text me
“I love you,” with a heart
wow...
even Pinocchio’s nose couldn’t stretch that far
you’re in bed
with someone new
so the blame
goes to you
because I can’t be happy
without you
but I can’t be happy
with you too
you break hearts and promises
it makes me blue
if only I could
get over you
I can’t get over
while I’m still under
you’ll never love me
that will be your greatest blunder
you make my heart break
can you hear its thunder
I wanna text back
but you’re with her
I’m sure last night
is still a blur
quick! put the phone down
she’s beginning to stir
she’ll say “good morning”
with a seductive purr
you’ll search your mind for a name
but you can’t remember her
“was she really worth my pain?”
my mind will wonder
but I decide to reply…..
“I love you too”
glistening
morning dew
the sky
a golden hue
and you’re in bed
with someone new
This is the same poem as my poem Glistening, but this includes extra verses, a more emotional and powerful ending, and the rearrangement of some verses.
