Once I Was
Once I was your wife....
Thought we would be together
For life....
Our titles have now
Been misconstrued
Because my life you misused
How does it feel calling me your “ex”?
On this you wouldn’t place a bet
And now you have subterranean regret
How can we now relate
Without operating in hatred
Once you were my husband....
I didn’t look at you same
Because you gave me your name
When your love was superior
Little did I know
It was based on materials
That I proved for you
The fact is
Your love was never true
Once we were a married couple
The tenure was short lived
You were never willing to give
100% percent
Now I resent
That you ever married me
Now I will never be free
Of all the memories
Of a colorful imagination
In factuality
Our marriage was never
A legitimate reality....
