Its funny how
well meaning friends
always advise,
"you deserve better than this".
That sounds nice
and reassuring.
A little bit
of ego massage.
But,
what if
I don't really
deserve any better
at all???
What if
this is
really as good
as it will
ever get?
What if
somehow God
has given all of us
just one chance
in our life
for marital and conjugal bliss,
and I've
already fucked it up?
