Growing Apart

Growing apart in marriage

Because we crossed each other’s path,


We find ourselves in the tight knot


Of the marriage institution.


Have we ever been in fusion?


 


We share our meals, our car and home,


Memories of children now grown,


And go about our daily tasks,


Keeping grudges behind our masks.


 


Under the guise of love and care


Our true feelings we do not share,


And what is worse, oh! What a hoax!


We carry on our civil talks,


 


Sealing the night off with a kiss,


Playing at a semblance of bliss.


We live like a towering lie.


Who can tell, except you and I?
