When a Woman Loves a Man

when a man says that he love a woman
what does he mean
when he says that without you he is nothing
is that really how it seems

how can a man say he wants you 	
and not touch you	
how can a man love you
and not care about your needs too

how do you know when to let go
and how do you know if a relationship is making you strong
when you get married no one tells you that you often feel alone
but they're quick to say don't give up on love just hold on

right now I feel so confused 
because, love has got me feeling so blue
often I think about having an affair
because he treat's me like I'm not here

should I stay so my child can have a family
and is it selfish of me to say I’m unhappy
is it wrong of me to give up on my marriage
and want to find comfort in another man
