Unassuming
You set a date, bring roses,
open the car door, fumble
while offering wine, I
warm to your heart, you
tell me this cold room has
been occupied for years by
another, though you cannot
remember her name, yet
I am supposed to love you.

This is a very "Cloud Atlas" like poem, with dimensions and timelines intertwining. I enjoyed the nature of it.

Oooh. I want to beat the crap out of him for you.
The title works perfectly for your poem and I agree with LDF, that last line is stunning.

Dear U,
This poem was like meeting a girlfriend to hash out the details over coffee and sitting with mouths agape at the audacity of the situation. Like WTF? I felt a huge deflated feeling because sadly, I’ve experienced similar situations. If it wasn’t so painful it’d be hysterical. Your writing of it was formatted and executed brilliantly. H🌷
