Jared Pickett Poet I do not know?

Random Thoughts *42* Monotetra 2

I woke today, my heart was sore
from what took place the day before.
My wife said she could stand no more.
Depression soars, depression soars

We'd been together fifteen years.
Anniversary drawing near.
her suffering I could not hear, 
to wipe her tears, to wipe her tears.

She told me she fell out of love
because my career came above.
Now finally she'd had enough,
it's getting rough, it's getting rough.

I can't believe I could not see,
my beautiful bride leaving me.
My legs gave out, dropped to my knees
and tried to plea, I tried to plea.

Sara Kendrick February 22, 2010 at 6:07 AM Hope that this is a topic and not your real life. If it is real life maybe there is hope. Keep the creative pen flowing. Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my work "Bowling Competition". No the write was not about bowling but a thunderstorm. My dog has to have prozac when there is a storm...just joshing but he is terrified. Sara

Linda-Marie Sweetheart February 21, 2010 at 4:29 PM Sometimes pleading is in vain.. but your poem is full of pain.. still a great write from one who is not yet hitched... great flow of your words Lone Wolf...still on the prowl? luv.. "Sweetheart"
