Never Less Than
Born 1973, M, from Ocoee, Florida, United StatesAll I ever wanted to be was your equal.
Your loving life partner to be valued as such.
Unfortunately your love is reserved for many people.
Thirsty I remain for your affections, never receiving much.
Greater than I, greater than we, your other life appears to be.
Time makes a lover feel real; yet from our time you always flee.
Distracted when present, eyes meet but never focus on me.
Power Couple, there once was two, now there are three.
Three is your other life, I can never measure up to, valued less.
Raw calm conversation + feelings shared = emotional mess.
Forever left wanting the challenge of earning love now daunting.
Nostalgic dreams of our love are now nightmares haunting.
Marital vows I obey, monogamous, faithful and committed.
Martial celibacy is now my reality, intimacy been omitted.
Years pass by, unknown the last time we shared in a carnal way.
Love still shared, care truly, love is action not just what we say.
