We, Or Maybe W-E

We share kids.
We share responsibilities.
We share a house.
We share a blanket, sheets, and a mattress, but w-e 
do not
share a life together.

Very sad, but you are actually telling it like it is in many households. People stay together for many reasons except for sharing a life of love together.Great poem - well done, my friend! Pandita

It s a really sad and powerful write, you have said so much in just a few words and your last line says it all " but we do not share a life". A very warm welcome to you on poetrysoup, I am sure that you will enjoy your long stay here, good luck and continue to write

Sad when marriages turn out to be so different from the expectations.

Very touching Amy. Too often marriage changes an ideal to an ordeal.
