Life's Design

My tears are flowing while my disappointment overflows. What else can I do, since you're too tired to hear me rant, but to return to this pathetic shell I thought I'd never have to revisit again since we found each other.

Yes you have much to be tired about lately. New job. New expectations. New home. New friend.

New friend, who has taken hold of you attention, your energy, your fascination, you dependence.

Without warning, I am now left to deal with your absenteeism - no more wake-up texts, working-hour calls, or late-night deliberations about life's grand design, and all its uninvited responsibilities and frustrations . My shoulder, eyes and ears are no longer in demand.

Without hesitation, you seek solace and comfort in your new friend, transferring all your attention, your energy, your fascination, your dependence. Your whims and fancies, fears and logic are no longer my staple.

Without you, I am just an emotional wreck to you.

Without me, you are just as free and easy with your new friend.

Without a clue, I sit here pondering about the reasons for my life's design, with all its unfulfilled promises and unwelcomed callousness, as I watch your pursuit with reckless abandon for the reasons in your life's design, and all its uncharted potential and unforgiving distractions.
