Deserted Wives
As we lay in the bed with her back to my face,
We have never been more distant with a picture of disgrace.
She don't look in my eyes anymore.
She glimps at me, then looks at the floor.
A love I thought I had for a never-ending lifetime.
Died and showed no remorse of any kind.
I tried to replenish it, restore the luster.
She's here but not here, just a body under the cover.
At first, I thought depressed, a world of her own.
But, I tried to sex her, but she wanted to be left alone.
No interest in me anymore, or her surroundings.
Her conversation with me was faint yet astounding.
I was told a medication will help her in the end.
But I know all the medication in the world will not make a lost relationship mend.
I pray to my lord above to help me understand.
But as the days move on, I can see it's out of his hands.
I have never been so alone than I am with her here.
I feel the tension between us whenever we are near.
I have never been in this kind of situation before.
So I don't know how to help it restore.
Is it best to move on and never look back?
Or is it better to wait and give it another wack?
The time away from two lovers usually is mended with strength and eternity.
But the time between her and I caused severe damage and that's a reality.
It's said that "only time will mend a broken heart."
But how do I know when to give up or when to start?
How long do this hell supposed to take place?
How long will she lay with her back to my face?
