you


I wonder how you are tonight
With your arms wrapped around her tight
Your talks of sweet nothing
her awed loving stares
as if you are the most beautiful thing she stumbled upon
intensely listening,morphing into your every emotions
you smile she smile you laugh she laugh
crying when you reveal your frustrations 
and curse your naysayers
the passion so profound 
my shattered heart shattering when you softly kiss
mumbling her name.

Did My name create an obstacle in your conversation
or smell my scent daftly lingering in the room.
No.
She is there listening to your dreams you once shared with me
Is she as gullible as me?
Or that strong headed tempered wretch that I am
Questioning yet timidly bowing to your love.
I being replaced with that slender lass
Perhaps a decade younger
With the one I once thought I knew.
Is she the one you thought of as Me?
