Connubial "I don't love him anymore
My heart, waits for him no more.
Honest to the core
I stay duty bound as before."
Though not a naughty woman,
Smitten by strange emotion
She was out of love with her husband-
Clarified her mind over the same, to him.
"My wife, mother of my child please forgive me,
If I've hurt I plead, be kind,
Have mercy, do not desert.
Remember, together we withstood many hard winters."
Compressed years flashed in seconds’
Epic sacrifice and affections.
She hid the glistening pearls of hers
Were sold again on his remorseful words.

I have seen this strange phenomenon. A Man who does
not appreciate the value of his wife, suddenly as he grows older gains hindsight that his lost would be immense.
He feels this sense of anxiety as he had onnce before as
in those days of courtship when she was not as yet his and
some other suitor envied his prize. He was attentive then.
He wooed and she let herself be wooed and now that she was
now his bride and property, he forgot that she was once
human and the object of his desire.
Over the years she has lost the love, she once felt and every bit of the admiration. As he grows older he senses
that she has grown wiser, stronger and liberated. He loves
her again with fresh fears and she has learned how not
to love. And the love that he has lost will never return.
For a womans heart is as constant in falling in love as it
is in falling out of love. He is the pitable fool, for she
can never and will never love him again.
This is a poem I have seen and understand.
I feel the deep seeded angst offset by deeper feelings of dedication and loyalty in these words. I truely empathize with the meaning. I was a seller of hollow promises in the past. Until I opened my heart, which in turn opened my eyes. I thought the grass to be greener, to be without the responsibility of a commited relationship until I was without it. I have proven my change and strive daily to make things even better.
