POEM: UNFAMILIAR BED

UNFAMILIAR BED

2011062451 - c2011 WLC

I sit here with my laptop

In an unfamiliar bed

Pondering the what ifs

Of what might have been instead

The covers nicely turned

Sheets were freshly washed

This could be something cold and stark

Not loving to the touch

But despite the miles between us

We'll see each other soon

And if we gaze out at the sky

You and I still share the moon

So I think of you this night

And lay my head upon you

If you're dreaming you might feel it

Even sense a bit of drool

I sit here with my laptop

In an unfamiliar bed

Looking towards our future

Content excitement fills my head
