Adrift Poem by Practicing Poetess
Adrift
I need a man of my own
So I won't be alone
Anymore.
i need a man of my own
Who never wants to roam
From my door.
I need a man of my own
Who's content to be home
Like before.
Baby, can't you see
You're drifting 'way from me
Your unanchored heart
Is becoming so lonely
Too long did you wait
You're noticing too late
That being adrift
Is not a pleasant fate.
So, when rescue comes
I hope that you will run
Right back to our door
And your roaming will be done.

A terrific verse, with great flow and rhyming, which speaks with eloquence to unfaithfulness.
Thank you for commenting, Evelyn Judy. He wasn't unfaithful- - he simply went off on his own, like a lone wolf, without explanation. And, MEN think that WOMEN are difficult to understand! : -)

Your man is roaming? I'm so sorry to hear that. May he and you survive this test and I wish both of you the best for all the rest of your lives!
Actually, this poem is not in the present tense. I'm sure you know that we poets possess the ability to dig deep into our imaginations, as well as to recall past memories, and sometimes we combine or embellish or whatever it takes to produce something worth capturing on paper, that perhaps someone will relate to or identify with. Thank you for reading and commenting!
'Struggle' is an accurate word! Ah, relationship problems. But, they DO make for some interesting poetry. Thanks for commenting, Kostas!
