PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

When we first met,
You and I discussed everything
I expected in a marriage and relationship.

But when it came down to it,
You really don't care
What I think or feel.

All I expect from you
Is to be there for me.
Not just through the good times,
But the bad as well.

But you lied to me-
You don't want nothing
To do with me
During the bad times;
You only want to ignore
And mentally hurt me.

I guess our marriage and relationship
Is nothing but
A big lie-
Why would you care though?
You only care for
Yourself.

Maybe I was wrong
For have taken your hand
Into marriage
When you asked me to.

You're so selfish-
At night you no longer
Hold me as you sleep.

You no longer share
The blankets with me
At night
When we sleep.

You may say
That I "hog" the blankets,
But you also
"Hog" them at night.

Don't you see?
You're tearing me apart.
I no longer feel whole-
I now feel alone.
I know that's not how
I'm supposed to feel
Now that
I am married.

You used to wipe
My tears away
When I was crying-
You used to
Tell me everything
Will be okay
When I had a problem.
Now you don't.

Now that I've said this-
Can't you see
That I'm torn?
