Behind closed doors
There was a time when a man like him didn’t speak to a women like her, but I guess you could compare it to a point of time in history where men and women knew how to stay faithful to one another, without all the complications of another man kissing on his wife and her EXCUSE would be that her husband was never there for her emotionally
Or when a women was left at her bed side because she had just found out the man she once LOVED was having an affair with one of her closes friends, which now pregnant with their THIRD child , praying that when she found out about the other women , that he would tell her that’s all she is “the other women”,
So now they are left with the choice to talk it out for the sake of the 4 kids they share or she leave him where she first found him, in the closet with his drink in one hand, a pack of “ Smokes” in the other, and the excuse he would use was that she didn’t love him enough, or she was too busy being self-centered, even though she maintained the cooking and cleaning, taking care of their kids while also maintaining two jobs because her husband could not even keep one,
Well now they are both left in the middle of the living room just staring at each other hoping one of them will break the silence because silence kills, hoping one or the other will explain their actions , because I mean that’s what its all about they want at the end of the day right Hope, a prayer that It can be fixed,
It seems to never happen, because what they don’t realize is they are both fighting for the same thing, a question only boundaries can clarify, so the both of them just continue to stand in the middle of the room unable to see the objective of their subjective issues, they are so busy fighting in their minds that they can’t even start to constipate on the idea of going back to what a real marriage is back to when there was such thing as COMMUNCATION ,
She moves her foot hoping he moves his lips and words come spilling out, he blinks his eyes praying she makes the first move because he doesn’t know what to say to her , he cries silently inside as she yells outside her head but inside her intentions grow because she wants him to hear her point and he knows she speaking clear enough,
So now what they have reduced themselves to this silent war the both them afraid to take Physical Action, so the take turns walking away silently careful not to take a step to loud that would force one or the other to turn around , so they turn away from each other, to sleep in different beds since that’s seems to be the only thing they can agree on for tonight.
LOVE what does that feeling mean anymore the one verb people tend to overlooked, symbolically it used to mean UNBREAKABLE , a word that now has no meaning its thrown around like a TOY in the need of batteries
A BOND between the ones daring to show affection ,but now it’s just an action that everyone is to scare to show rightly anymore, nonsense is the correct term, so now we are face to face with the big lime green elephant in the room running away like its being chanced around by mouse careful not to get it stuck in its trunk, starting new issues to avoid the current ones, enjoying pleasant conversations in front of people, because we all know if really think about it the picture you paint in front of people is what they will always assume happens Behind Closed Doors.
