Another Restless Night

CATEGORY

Tripping over you, as I fall into bed

Experiencing further disappointment, because I’ve been misled

Tossing and turning, as I turn away from you

Rolling over to face the issues that surround me, asking what do I do?

Going through the motions, yet emotionless

Thinking of abandoning this situation, unwilling to confess

Trying not to be here, has gotten me nowhere

Feeling….. if either of us left, neither would even care

Blanketed between external lust and internal satisfaction

Injecting suggestions of seductive thoughts, still there's no reaction

My eyes I can close, but from this state I can’t escape

Night after night, replaying the same worn out tape

The Comforter brings no comfort and the sheets don’t seem to fit

The headboard is idle and silent, so frustrated here I sit

While the mattress is brand new, all of its bounce is gone

How can it be, I feel all by myself, when I’m not alone

Wheezing, snorting and snuffling fill the atmosphere

Drowning out the sound of hope and I see no ending near

The pillows are fluffed each day, absent of nightly pillow talk

A relationship long muted, is now outlined in chalk

A bed full of emptiness, filled with a body that is cold

I fall out bed, reaching for security, but there’s nothing here to hold

Tumbling to the floor, provides no relief

The rug cushioned my fall, but I’m carpeted with disbelief

Another restless night, has become my repeating theme

Tonight I lay awake…. but a better night shall come….. will be tomorrow’s day dream
