Love Poem: The Night

Written by: Susan Wilson

The Night

She stood at the window
Waiting for the car to pull into the drive
She prayed her suspicions weren't true
She wished he wasn't alive

He puts her through this night after night
He doesn't see these tears she cries
He doesn't see the pain she feels
He can't see how he hurts her with these lies

She tries with all her strength to make it work
She wants him to be by her side
She can't keep playing this role
But she can't bear to say goodbye

She heard the car and saw the lights
She was standing at the door
She saw it all in his eyes
She said, " I'm sorry. I just can't do this anymore."
