OBSOLETE

feelings about my other half

OBSOLETE

Older than 20 but not yet 50
Best is passed but not forgotten
Someone who was always there but not seen
Often mistaken but seldom wrong
Left alone but not behind
Endearing but not entertaining
Terrific but not tantalizing
Everyone’s best but his worst

How do you feel when you go to sleep
Next to the one from your dreams?

How do you feel when they go to work
And you stay home in sweatpants and shirt?

How do you feel, knowing the truth
Giving your all but having no proof?

Being married forever, thirty years or more
Only to realize, he thinks you’re a bore.

O B S O L E T E …..
