You said you need me
You want me
I’m a love
I’m an obsession
Yet we have never spoken on a phone
Or seen each other face to face
You call me husband
As you live your life alone
Call me a cheat, though I’ve slept with no one
As you ask for money…
Promise a loving life if only I wait
In a few months’ time
Patience
Two years have passed
But, those several months never do
Promises, promises of the life we will have
Future tense if I only wait,
Only listen
Only comply
Control comes in many forms
Use comes in them as well
As you live your life ….
I’m alone
You call it a relationship
To you I’m convenient
To me, you are like another bill
It’s not a real relationship
Promise a lot
Give nothing
Demand to be paid..
In the end … I’m left here
Alone
