I Dont Know You
KathieyV
We sat on the couch together, you on one end I on the other.
The same couch we had snuggled on, had laughed on,
had held our Grandchild on.
You stared straight ahead, as though I were not in the room,
as though you could not see me.
Your face stern, your fists clenched.
I asked you to reconsider leaving your family.
I asked you not to break your vow to God and to me.
It was then I saw your jaw tighten, your gaze remain fixed.
It was then I realized
you arenot the manI thought I married.
It was then I realized
I dont know you.

So well said, so true, so meaningful and so so sad.
