Poem: Married But Single

You promised friendship
Love and companionship
You said for better for worst
But ignored my emotions
Each time you walk away
A portion of me dies

If marriage was about procreation
I could have married anyone
But i waited for love
In prayer and fasting
God sent me an Angel
Truth is, i am married but single

Loneliness is killing me
I am sick and tired
Cold nights reminds me of us
I miss us Sweety
Beyond pleasure trips
And the glory of comfort
Give me a me time
Just like the good old days

There is a crack in the wall
Laptop and phones took my place
Even though you are married to me
I want it back love back
Before i loose my mind
Lest i fall in the hands of another
Now, this is not a threat.
