The Cruelest of All Bed Partners

The Cruelest of All Bed Partners

 

Just look at me, why don’t you

I am not broken,

okay, maybe bruised a touch

and disillusioned ..

So why does it still hurt so much ..

 

Just look at me, why don’t you

I am not a token,

but maybe, an accessory perhaps

and though not broken, should you

dare to look, you just may see the cracks ..

 

Just look around, why don’t you

I am not joking ..

Reality is a cruel, conniving thief ..

Once I thought you perfect

but truth and time, stole that belief ..

 

Just look and see, why don’t you,

forget the games

and delusions the dream is lost

and all but shattered,

reality and time are such cruel bed partners ..
