You want me to be your devoted wife,
to love, honour and cherish you,
and not care where you are and what you do.
You want me to believe you love me
and forgive everything you have done,
when you will not leave the other one.
You want me to recommit to a long future
that you abandoned for years,
almost fled because of my tears.
You want me to thrive and succeed,
to include you in my future plan,
but I do not understand how I can.
I want you to love and cherish me,
to listen and understand my fears,
to honour even my anger and tears.
I want you to commit to life with me,
to share your hours both day and night,
to open your heart if and when we fight.
I want to believe you love me;
I can't believe in words and roses,
only what your action discloses.
I want you to live your joy,
work with purpose, thrive and succeed,
and have the kind of love you need.
Am I the wife for you, indeed,
are you the husband for me?
What do you think?

This is a very sad, emotional piece. Heartfelt and heartbroken. I'm sorry for your pain, but it does help to write it down.

It sounds like you are in a great deal of pain. This is a das, if not well written piece. I wish you all the best.
