My Bear's New Love

Folder: 
Test Driving Love

The unanswered phone.
Our friends concern.
Can't stop the panic,
of not wanting to be alone.
Misery, misery.
My heart is stinging.
Prayer's slip thru my lips.
To a God I pretend to ignore.
Control, manipulation, love.
All are yours to face.
Your new lover's a disgrace.
Betrayal eats at my skin.
Not as a lover but as a friend.
I needed you but you disappeared.
Hiding your shame in her.
Needing to see yourself.
In her eyes.
Naively thinking,
she looks as you look.
Greencard quarter back,
she calls  all of the plays.
