I Write Poetry Best When I Am Depressed
Neglected Wife!
Why do you say you love me?
When your body you deny.
Why do you only kiss me?
For your affections I do cry.
Why can't you just love me?
Like the lover I do crave.
Why do you leave me wanting?
So much tenderness I can't have.
Why do you make me feel lonely?
In a marriage thats based on true love.
Why won't you caress me and touch me?
Like a hand that firs in a glove.
Why do you leave me so empty?
Leave me yearning for your tender touch.
Why do you leave me so lonely?
When I love you, I love you so much.
