'Understanding' Poem by MoNique Jones

'Understanding'



I thought never in a miilion years
would I have to share a man
with the other woman

I stand corrected! It dosent seem fair
not to me but to her as well
I know we got this 'understanding'
But at times she gets the best of you
and we recieve nothing but a rushed phone call
A quick hello and quick goodbye

I dont know if this 'understanding'
we got is going to work
but i willing to try a little bit longer
because I got our son and he needs you
more than I do, so I will put my feelings aside
along with my pride

So this 'understanding' we got will work its self out

because I too walk in your foot steps... and do that 'understanding' thing... and know your heart... I just wanted to tell you, remember God has all things in his hands and he has your back :) Dawn

Very painful. There is a saying in my mother tongue Telugu 'two swords do not fit in one scabbard' It is very much true. Your expressions are excellent. Thanks for sharing.
