Empty Bed

The city never sleeps.

It's midnight and

I just want to kiss you.

Smiling in the dark

before I sleep,

listening to our song

on the radio.

Lyrics so close to home,

I lost track of everything.

It is just me

with too much space.

No one wants

to sleep in

an empty bed.

[Coyote Poetry]

Yes you are right dear poet. Once bed of two that became bed for one. A lonely place. I felt the yearning and the missing of someone in your words. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.

Simple, bitter-sweet and beautiful. I really like this. I feel that many would be able to relate to the feelings expressed here.

[John the Baptist]

Sparely written but conveys the sense of loneliness well. "It is just me/ with too much space." No more need be said. Well done.
