Marriage

Another man wearing his father's clothes

Uncomfortably awkward on the edge of his life

Like the tallest tree he continually grows

though he only grows more dead inside

With the loss of all his hopes and dreams

the shoes his father left get heavy

He'll go home and in sillence scream

Tell himself this time he's ready

Another woman sees the homemaker on tv

Spends her time trying to become her very best

Sees the loving wife and kids in the movie

Feels any empty echo that will never be impressed

With the loss of all her self esteem and silly hope

she keeps on cleaning to releive her ache

Though the family continually makes little jokes

They never recognize the insufficeint pain
