Love Rebounded Part 2

They devour each other Their excuse for infidelity: familiarity How can it be wrong? Both taken, both taking Sickly forbidden fruit Followed by titanic guilt So much wrong Damage...done She wants to know he loves her still He insists she leave her new lover ‘But that will destroy him’ ‘Oh great, destroy me but not him!’ ‘Don’t worry babe, just give me a while. I will break it to him gently’ What has he’s opened? Pandora time She can’t stay Sneaks off like a thief With a slice of his heart Back to the new man She slips in bed An arm wraps around her Rigid with guilt Head chock full Sleep wont come Across town about to doze He receives another text ‘I cant sleep babes, thinking of you I wish you were here instead of him Tonight was like old time, felt so right Let’s do it again...soon I love you and always will Sweet dream my love’ Anxiety floods his chest ‘****! She’s ****ing with my head In my old bed, with another man Wishing she was with me instead? What the fu...?’ He wants her desperately But can't stop thinking about... Her with him having sex in his bed A light bulb ignites He can’t go backwards Needs to forge on So shoots her a text ‘I had the best time, it was a lot of fun But, been there, done that Got the t-shirt and a scar Let’s pretend this never happened Then I won’t have to deal with the fact that… My baby's mammas a cheating whore You made your bed With your new man Lay in it’
