Infidelity: Part II- A Wife's FrustrationsA Poem by Blueto the husband
Husband, lover,
I've lived with you for years. Why have you commanded out these little bitter tears? What was my fault, my darling? To you what have I done? That you sought love not in your wife but in another one? Remember our shared moments back to those glorious days. Unstained with life's difficulties; everything's in place. But changes came and made things worse as time has passed us by. Our marriage is in deathbed now with its unanswered "Why?" Was it the food I cooked at night, appealing not in taste? Was it the cleaning of the house I always did in haste? Was it the boring clothes I wore? Or something that I said? Was it my unresponsiveness when I was tired in bed? If what I did was not enough, your needs were still unmet. I guess I have to thank your girl to whom I owe a debt. She did the things I failed to do and maybe so much more. But all she gave to me, your wife, was loss worth grieving for. My love for you is intact still; I hope my trust is, too. But I am not yet strong enough to start our life anew. So give me time--a lot of time for me to mend my heart. For now let's go our separate ways and learn to live apart.
