True Love Waits

Distressed I awake to an empty bed Your form is imprinted on duvet sheet Still silhouetted and cold to my feet Urgent abandonment as clothes were shed Oh, why should you cry and sob in your sleep My heart is in turmoil as to your faithful love When once everything fitted as a glove You push away, as eyes through lashes peep In wracking my brain sleep deserts me too At work she hates me to send her text In my love I shall be a better man If trust is lost on both sides start anew So many times I have been so perplexed To think of losing you my Kellyanne Showering, I hear mobile ring alert Eight o'clock, who could it, be maybe her Towel draped I scoot out thinking beware Taking time drying I reach for my shirt Pinging text message followed closely on Wasting no more time I checked mobile phone It was Kellyanne saying "stay at home" So urgently texted back "what's up hon" The outside gate creaked on it's rusty hinge Time seemed to stand still for a little while Then a white Ford sedan came roaring by Kellyanne alighted, long hair and fringe Rushed into my arms with a beaming smile "LOVE YOU", no need now for a private eye.
