The Wife

Prologue: The vision captures the story of a woman who strives to remain relevant in her marriage throughout life’s uncertainty.

Can we just skip the vows

And the doubting

I know that it gets hard

It’s profound baby

The novelty wears off

And we’re drowning

I kind of liked it best when you were all about me

You’d just pop up and visit whenever the thought reached

But since intimacy’s increased

It somehow brings out the beast

We work it out in the sheets

Or bite our tongues for a week..

I can’t believe how I mirror you

It lets me know that I care

(sincerely)

I could not leave you alone

(Not nearly)

I could not let this thing go

(It’s scary)

But we collide

Through space and time

Here for the ride

Glad to be your wife
