Who's Sleeping On My Bed

Who's sleeping on my bed
          As am gone
          When am gone
          As i've been gone

What's her name? She
     Does she keep the bed warm as I used too
     Does she keep it crease free as I used too
     Does she keep our memories alive?
          Am sure she doesn't 

That bed will always be ours
Come she, come she, come she
No matter how many magical plays she brings
     That bed will only sparkle with us in it
No matter her perfume, kisses, lipsticks, lingerie
     That bed is a museum of only two hearts,
          Me and you

Who's sleeping on my bed
          Our bed
She should enjoy it now
          Our healthy bed
For hers will never last
For I'll be back

Its fictional!! Andrea I could almost hear you say, hell no!! Some men do go this far and some women who love them so much would do anything to save their marriage/relationship even when this kind of thing is going on. I think this kind of women are very strong and patient. Thank you Andrea.

He is not worthy to have you in his bed. I would suggest you burn the bed before you are inticed back to it.

Very clever, Njeri; like how you express your feelings. You appear secure in knowing that she won't last and you'll be back in your rightful place...but, is that what you really want?! I think I would not bother; I'd rather have a new him and a new bed:) hugs // paul

That's true. This is fictional but am also writing for that woman who fights hard to save her marriage when the husband seems to be lost. Thank you Paul for your comment.
