You Put Me Here

I met her at a public place Our eyes met for the first time I immediately felt so many emotions "What was it about her that made you step out on our commitment?" "Was she more beautiful than I?" "Did I not fulfill my wifely duties?" "How come loving me appropriately was a hard thing for you to do?" "Was I not enough?" I told myself I wasn't going to allow any man to make me feel less than what I was worth She told me she killed one of you babies and carried the other in her womb My heart broke in so many pieces I remained strong not one tear fell I was so overwhelmed by grief I couldn't allow myself to accept her apology nor respect her in that moment Yes I am pissed at you Yes I deserve better Yes you will get what you get Yes our family will not be the same and I will not allow this moment to define me
