The people we were going to have as witnesses
to our marriage
Friends
you wanted to just grab anyone and get it over in a hurry
instead
screaming out your outrage at me
just like you did to your ex wife in front of me
telling her snidely things to anger her
playing us against eachother
like third graders do
so many men do not even want to marry
the times you said you cared and I was stupid ot believe you
wanted to stay by your side forever
I know it all was lies now and empty
dust
I am a plant growing in the ashes and I will survive
I knew inside even as I said yes
it would be no
all too good to be true
and there is only an empty space a cleaned house
in my heart
when love has gone
and empty room waiting
the maid has come and swept my heart
making room for someone else
who has the right key
