New Love

By colleen

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

New Love I think its great that you have a new love I'm very happy for you. That you have found somebody who Doesn't mind when you come in smelling like smoke Or when you show up at 9 When you said you'd be there at 8. I think it's great That she's a size 2 And her hair is always perfectly straight And you couldn't find a blemish on her face And she never breaks a sweat Even when the temperature breaks 100. If you tried. And I'm glad that she knows when to laugh and when to shut up; I guess I always had trouble with that. I have a new love too. His name is Dave, He's older than both of us. He sings me beautiful songs through my radio And keeps me company on rainy days. He sends me presents from the road And treats me like a queen. But when I go to sleep at night My bed is empty As his voice comes through my radio And sings me to sleep As I drift into a dreamland Where I can be with the one I love And I am no longer afraid of love And the power it has over us all.
