“For my own sake,

and the sake of the woman

who lives on the other side

of your bed, I am going to

stop loving you.


When you touched me

for the first time,

I could feel all

of the promises you told

her you would keep.

When you looked at me

with thirsty eyes,

you broke one.

When you told me

you would rather it

be me making breakfast

and then the bed,

you broke two in one thought.

You don’t have to

press your passionate lips

to my mouth for it to be

the only way of you

deceiving her heart.

Just wishing that I

were on the other side

of the couch is enough

to do the proper damage.”
