Contradictory Past and Present

Sonnet, Love loss,

Dating, Oh!, so much fun doing new things

This person is perfect in every way

Movies, popcorn shared, touch, a brush...heart sings

Just want that caress, the arm around stay

 

Now awaken to another day no play

No brushes, that gentle caress gone, left

Control norm, making demands no sun ray

No I will not go to a movie deft

 

Dying spirit on the inside daily

Longing for love, acceptance, fun again

Could be just a walk in the woods babe

Sitting close or lying on couch in den

 

Soon I'll be gone; no longer home __near

I'll go out to find myself, my soul__love

Author's Note

So many marriages go this way so I wrote a poem..

Nice poem. And you are so right about that as well.
