All She Needed

She was married to a man so loveless and cold, Married to a man that became old Before his time And was living out life Bitter and angry all the time, How was she supposed to live like this Living a life where love is missed, She has urges and she has needs No suprise then when someone offered to free The desire and the passion within her body, She surrendered so easily, All she needed from him was lustful love All she needed from him was meaningless lust, All she really needed was to feel a tender touch So she embraced this man until she had enough, All she wanted was to receive some love, She never even felt bad about this, For she didn't believe her husband would care about this He never considered her needs She never considered why he was like this, One day when she came home From having a loving rendezvous, She could not understand why the house was dark and in gloom, When she turned the lights on, he was there, Hanging from the ceiling which he had fashioned with care, It seems he suffered from desperate ways Did not like what he had became, Did not like his angry moods Decided his life would be better ended soon, Realised she had found somebody else So he did what he thought was selfless. She broke down as he hung their She never realised he was in so much despair And all either needed was somebody to care, All they both needed was to share, Thoughts and feelings But they never talked, So in the end he gave into it all And now she's going to have to live with this, A cruel and unbelievable life twist, That would leave her with a life of suffering.

It is so important to communicate, and give up petty grudges before it is too late. Poetic justice and sage advice
