GIVE IT YOUR ALL
They say that marriage is hard,
Give it your all.
So I gave:
An arm and a leg (bruised & scarred)
My heart (broken & scared)
My mind (mentally abused & labelled)
My sexuality (sexed & discarded)
My car, my house, my bank accounts
My children, my family, my friends
My past
My future
My shirt off my back
I gave & gave until I had nothing left to give
I collapsed every day with fatigue & pain
I even gave away my identity, who am I?
They say that marriage is hard
Give it your all.
I don’t think that is what they meant.
