Engaged,
plotting marriage,
I nodded,
while looking through you
at every women in the park.

Married,
seven years,
a child, come between us,
I miss the lust
publicly displayed by others,

Divorced,
free to roam, I sit alone
watching couples with children, and lust
for the blessed trinity...

of the three of us, to be, again, at home.

A nice piece of poetry written with insight. Marriage requires a high degree of tolerance, and sacrifices here and there to keep the bliss of love waxing strong. A lovely poem indeed. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
