Admiring her beauty
When we first met
Her blond hair and body
I just wanted to get
The good times were many
The worries were few
We fed upon lust
Then love began to brew
As time together passes
The lust starts to fade
Life's chores become hectic
You question decisions made
First there's complaints
Followed soon by contempt
Love is then questioned
As sex is exempt
You get so frustrated
And full of dismay
At the things that are said
Marriage isn't meant to be this way
Maybe it's me
Have I changed in some way
Not that I can see
No, I think I'm OK
Then you realize one day
That something's amiss
The love is not there
No more sharing a kiss
With your heart now broken
You lay there at night
Your eyes wide open
Thinking this isn't right
My attempts to discuss
The problems I see
Only create a fuss
Between her and me
In your heart you now know
How this story will go
Another failed marriage
With three kids to show
All the love and the dreams
Once shared are forgotten
Instead they're replaced
By actions all evil and rotten
Any good deeds of past
And efforts once made
Are erased in a moment
With consent orders laid
