While You Were

While you were talking with her

I was working,
picking the kids up
then rushing home

While you were dining her

I was cooking
listening to messages
you left on the phone

While you were dancing with her

I was cleaning,
bathing the kids
And fixing your plate

While you were kissing her

I was worrying
Questioning why
You 'd work this late

While you were holding her

I was calling
But your boss said
You left at four

While you were loving her

I was packing,
getting the kids up
Going out the door

While you were leaving her

I was driving
Watching the road signs
Clearing my head

Then When You Came Home

You called my cell phone
I could have answered
But tossed it instead!

While you were talking with her I was working, picking the kids up then rushing home

While you were dining her I was cooking listening to messages you left on the phone While you were dancing with her I was cleaning, bathing the kids And fixing your plate

While you were kissing her I was worrying Questioning why You 'd work this late While you were holding her I was calling But your boss said You left at four

While you were loving her I was packing, getting the kids up Going out the door While you were leaving her I was driving Watching the road signs Clearing my head

Then When You Came Home You called my cell phone I could have answered But tossed it instead!

Excellent piece, Nora...I love the way you did this piece, it really sets a mood and creates an intense read. And the ending, though painful, was great!

Great work here Nora.
I'm sorry to say I can relate to it all.
It has taken years for the sting to subside, but when i wrote a poem titled "Goodbye", the healing began.
Good luck to you, dear.
-James
