Listening to the rain

I'm lying here beside you, I can hear the rain outside
I'm clutching tightly to my phone, the one I'm forced to hide
Perhaps Ill get a message from him wishing me good night
So I check under the covers for the "text message recieved" light

You would kill him if you found out, god knows you'd kill me too
Even though deep down we both know our relationship is through
As I'm lying here beside you, listening to the rain
My thoughts of him turn into dreams, then its morning time again

I love you still don't get me wrong, but more just as a friend
And I hate what i am doing so I fake it and pretend
My heart just wants to have you both, my head tells me its wrong
That some one will get hurt and I should learn to be strong

I'm seeing him today were taking picnic to the park
I will spend the day in his strong arms then sneak back when its dark
Your fast asleep and I still have the hiccups from the champagne
As I'm lying here beside you and I'm listening to the rain.....

    This a wounderful poem even though the topic is of cheating. The rhyme scheme is excellent-it flows like a river. I really enjoyed reading this as I could not turn away. In word WOW. I'm glad I checked your site out. I be back for more.

    Phew..... this gave me shivers.... not haunting ones... just uncomfortable ones from the feelings of anxiety and being torn in such a way. So well done with the rhyme and flow for what is an incredibly sensitive theme. You have truly rattled my cage with this. A very penetrating and affecting write.

    Well, this is a difficult situation to be in. Loving, no loving, not one but two fellows...and the element of danger is there too. I do not wish to be that person, such decisions I'll leave for those braver and stronger than I.
