Today I was told that I have been a place holder for something better
"I knew early on this would not last but I didn't think you and your daughter had anywhere to go. I do feel sorry for waisting your years".
9 years.
You plugged another woman in immediately.
Before it was even over.
But that's nothing knew.
Only one of the reasons I fought against you.
You needed no greiving.
Your life has not skipped a beat.
What do I do with all this?
At 52 and no longer desired.
The one who lost everything with no way to rebuild.
NO, I am not a victim.
But yes, I am.
I hung on out of loyalty to you as my friend and compannion.
Out of love and possibilities.
So, to know that I meant nothing still hurts.
No matter that I should no longer care.
