Bad Marriage

The slides ley broken in her fingers
Shreds like nerves torn apart
It was her fault again
For listening to her obstinate heart

The image stayed in her mind
This wife was never mine
A smile which had no joy
A will that had to be moulded in time

Again and again, trying to convince oneself
Its okay I can do this, I can stand up to the test
Then falling and hoping the next would hurt much less
Holding on to the person you used to be
When everything about you is something else you don't recognize
Lord she wouldn't wish this on an enemy
Not once, not twice, her recurring demise

Try to hold on, the voices said
Try to smile, scolded her heart
Try to put yourself together
When all of her felt torn apart

Was she supposed to care at all
About something that brought her
Naught but despair
Oh where was that girl
Who thought nothing was impossible?
She's right here
She's right here
She's right here
