Them As Concern

Neither wished to be 
taken advantage of
Both refused to 
compromise, one spoke of
not being. favored, and in light of
circumstances he 
sought kindness above
all other facts.
Unbalanced they remained 
to one another
Seeking. advice and
 encouragement. from those
Who supported there togetherness.
He spoke of certain 
times when he relied on
His wife to make sure 
his health wasn't at issue.
He wished her to 
make his health a priority.
 Before anyone could speak of
His life she could answer 
to satisfy those queries.
She though 
was scripted and neglected
To even concern herself 
with his care. Speaking for
Her needs and in no concern for him.
What concerns a 
people who's guidance is neither
Ritual or right.
In every condition
