Drifting apart but staying together

Office hours were such a stress
When he returned home he just slept
Files, papers and timeless meetings
His peace of mind was by far amiss

And here she waited for him to join
The dining table that longed for their union
To talk, laugh and together dream
Was all and everything she ever asked him




He skipped his meals and often got sick
But his struggle for life forever sustained
So much into work that he never bothered
A family of four he barely looked after

Was she being taken for granted?

Or was the love lost in the ashes?Many questions were bothering herLeaving her depressed and insecure 

The love was there concealed in his heart
How deeply he cared he failed to show her
Despite the abeyance he was always there
Pity she could not see the hidden gestures



With time she knew he was doing it all
For them alone and their children's future
One good opportunity was all he looked for
A promising career that could end the disaster
