Love Stranded
>In a house that once echoed with love's sweet song,
A woman now finds herself feeling so wrong.
Her husband, once tender, now distant and cold,
Leaves her heartache to silently unfold.
He was once her knight, her protector, her guide,
But now in his absence, her love starts to hide.
She remembers the days when his touch was so warm,
But now she's left weathering love's bitter storm.
She tends to his needs, she cooks and she cleans,
But his attention for her remains unseen.
For he only draws near when he seeks his desire,
Leaving her longing, her heart in the mire.
She longs for the days when they laughed and they played,
But now in the silence, her love starts to fade.
She yearns for his touch, his affection, his care,
But it seems that her pleas vanish into thin air.
She dreams of the times when they danced in the rain,
But now in the darkness, she's filled with disdain.
For he's become a stranger, a shadow, a ghost,
Leaving her love stranded, adrift on love's coast.
Yet still, in her heart, a flicker remains,
A hope that their love will break free from these chains.
For she's a woman of strength and of grace,
With a love that time cannot erase.
She holds onto memories, treasures each one,
Hoping that love's journey is not yet done.
For even in the midst of this pain and this strife,
She clings to the promise of a love-filled life.
So she waits in the silence, in the depths of the night,
Hoping to see love's guiding light.
For she knows in her heart, through the trials they face,
That her love for him will always find its place.
