Missing You

She avoids him like the plague

Hides in the bedroom.

He is always out in the car

or seeing his mates.

They only spent time

together in bed asleep.

Then odd asked question

do you want a coffee?

Across the kitchen asked.

Or it's your turn to take the

kids to school.

Lost proper communication

and quality time spent together.

How times change.

And you start to drift apart.

She sits in the toilet and cries

her eyes out in private. Wipes

her tears and goes back to

pretending all is okay for the

children.

He gets drunk with his mates

at the local pub. So he does

not have to come home

and talk to her.

How sad this families life

is...

The missing doesn't only go with the far distances, sometimes we miss those whom are near us more than those whom are far, we miss their genuine selves, in my opinion the routine can kill the spirit of love, the couple need to always have understanding and friendly relationship, they need to keep their passions and romance alive with always trying or adding something new to their life, the smallest of things make difference.

Insightful comment Light, and I do agree, You always have to think of each other. And little things mean a whole lot.

Sadly this has become the way of many married couples living a lie- I’d rather die than live this lie- been there done it refuse to do it again and in the end the kids gets damaged most- real and emotional write🌹

When we think we know everything we know nothing and when we think we know nothing we become wise- in the silence of learning- you are most welcome- Thankyou for sharing🌹

Wise words and profoundly true. Always learn. Just sometimes. Can not hear because of the noise around Sadly. But I do learn eventually. hugs. Dawn.

This reminds me more of a blog rant than a poem; however, the author does make her point well, and it is very easy to discern the upset she feels in her life and marriage. There is a longing for something more, something better that comes across in the words clearly.
