Observation
What do you see?
A girl
A woman
A mother
A wife
A person
A thing
Is what you say
It has a heartbeat
It has the five senses
It has eyes
It has ears
It has a functioning brain
Yet you say she's useless
How so?
She cooks
She cleans
She does your laundry
She buys your necessities
She is the one when you have when there's no one else to turn to
But you take advantage
Taking her freedom
Taking her voice
Taking her happiness
Taking her way
Taking everything away
Except her emotions, yes, you left that
To feel pain
To feel misery
To feel despair
To feel solitude
To feel unloved
Marriage is a difficult thing
It has its arguments
Its downfalls
Its tiny moments of joy
But a flame that's been distinguished
It leads to confrontations
It leads to separation
It leads to court
Doing one thing, to keep that flame, to save it
There would be understanding
There would be cozy nights
There would be laughs and kisses
There would be less arguing and more repairing
All could be done with help within or out
It's never to late to see where everything lies
It never is
