Poem

[Stuckinturmoil]

I sit across the room watching you on your phone.
I wonder if you also feel so alone.
I have no idea how you feel inside
If you really are so cold, or are just trying to hide.
But either way I have done all I can
I have tried my best to get through to my man.
If love was the answer I have enough for two
But the unpredictable venomous anger towards me I can no longer do.
Constantly making excuses in my head
To minimise all the mean things you said
But the bottom line is whilst I stay
I am becoming even less every day
Not just in your eyes but mine too
As only a weak woman would stay with a man like you.
I have my flaws like everyone does
But I am a kind woman who knows how to love.
I can forgive and I am sometimes a fool
But now I can see how you treat me is cruel.
It breaks my heart after all of these years
But the time has come to put an end to the tears
I know deep down the old ‘name’ is there somewhere
Buried so deep you don’t seem to care
But every day I wait for you to come back to me
Is a day wasted anxious, upset and lonely.
I wanted a husband to be on my side
To inspire, defend, encourage and guide
But instead I am criticised and Judged
Nothing I do or say is your eyes is any good.
So now I have to make the leap of faith
No safety net to keep me safe.
I just have to trust I will be ok.
As Scarlet o’Hara said tomorrow is another day.
