Marital Decline

Marital decline Dreams of love have had their day or so it seems of late, all the times once joined and shared are turning into hate. Words no longer fill the void as earth and moon collide, like cancer creeping through your soul that festers deep inside. Pain now fills each waking day and does not wane at night, yet still you try to keep alive a past now out of sight.

They may need to set their "phones" aside and communicate a bit more often. We are "all" loosing our ability to "share" our thoughts and desires with one another. It's a shame our culture is defined by our screen time memories. oldbuck

Thank you Emilia, it is almost as hard to write about it as live with it. Living goes on the same way, leaving ones words stuck in time. Ghosts indeed! Tim
