Stranger In My Bed

Even "perfect" relationships take a lot of commitment, patience, kindness, love, empathy, communication and trust. We need to hold a space for each other to move, breathe, reconnect and grow. Look at your loved ones - they are special to you for a reason. Give them a smile, a positive message and a hug. You never know how important those little moments are until they are gone. Stay safe and take care. Blessings for a wonderful day and an amazing week. Stranger in my bed By Michelle Morris 23/07/2021 There's a stranger in my bed; A man I used to know. He was good and kind and strong; Loving, for we belonged. Now he keeps to himself, No words or gestures to show; Feelings and thoughts hidden, Never shared or known. There's a stranger in my bed; A woman I used to know. She was good and kind and strong; Loving, for we belonged. Now she hovers around uncertain, Never leaving me alone; Sometimes I need my space, To work things out in quiet moments. There's a stranger in my bed, Will we ever reconnect? Or will we remain ships passing, And forever live with regret? For a relationship commitment Is only the first step; We have to communicate To keep each other read. And only by doing a delicate Dance of give and take, Can we be there for each other, Like true helpful mates. There's a stranger in my bed, But we're learning more each day; I kind of like them, and hope that Forever here they'll stay. © Michelle Morris, 2021
