I Wonder If She Dreams With Her Wedding Ring On

Our marriage is now over twenty years long The friendship remains but the passion seems gone I watch her sleeping at nights; sometimes she'll gyrate and moan I wonder if she dreams with her wedding ring on Is she making love to me or some mystery man Does she dream of the past or one of our friends When she's awake all I get is the "I've got a headache now" song I wonder if she dreams with her wedding ring on As for me I am still very active below But my hands, of lately, are the only lovers I know I can tell by her dreaming the desire is not completely gone I wonder if she dreams with her wedding ring on Perhaps it's not her and it really is me Perhaps I don't satisfy her quite completely I watch her gyrate for over a half hour long I wonder if she dreams with her wedding ring on Should I wake her and take her in this erotic state It dejects me when she rejects me; it might be a mistake So I watch, not moving and not playing along And, I wonder if she dreams with her wedding ring on

Joe - I hope this is just a poem from your imagination. But whatever it is, it is a good poem. Mike

A sad (and frustrating) state of affairs. Don't know whether this is auto-bio or just a poem, but you make it seem real. A good write.
