Trophy Wife

 

 

pretty as a picture

you chose her well

"You look like Barbie and Ken together"

said with a smile and a nudge

 

but don't look too closely now

her plastic looks and painted face

turns your blood ice cold

happy in her vanity

 

she has the things she wants

but where does that leave you

she doesn't ask and doesn't care

Where you have been all night

 

brush the curl off your forhead

kiss your sleeping brow

tiptoe out into the hall

and out the hotel door

 

When you wake you smile and sigh

read the note on the pillow

stumble to the shower ,dress

read the note again and smile

 

"Always here and always gone"

I think this why god created men and women. We see the world in entirely different ways. I enjoyed the poem but disagreed with the man centered in the story. First of all we should all marry a Trophy Wife. The trophy wife should be judged by her contents, the qualities that she possesses but not exclusively by her looks. If her world is not centered around herself (entirely) I would say you have a keeper.

As to this man who would live in a loveless marriage I just can not relate. Beautiful women are not always seen at first glance. They are discovered.

I think this poem rings true about alot of teenage relationships. Each sex trying to find the trophey bf or gf. no one wins in those situations. I should know I've lived it up with models and hollywood stars, but I was never truley happy..... :P ...I whish. see what I mean wanting what we do not truley want. Number one examle right here. (points to self) great poem
