This poem is dedicated to all the wives who feel that the charm has gone from their married lives.

Has It Been So Long

© Rachana Mohanan
Has it been so long?
Since we have spoken
Has it been so long?
Since we have shared
It feels like ever to me,
Since, you have last cared.

It was supposed to be forever,
It was supposed to be true
Now it’s always
Either ME or YOU

I have loved you
With all my heart
Ever since I know
Has it been so long?
That it doesn’t even show

Because if it did,
You would have been here
By my side,
Letting me know
I mean so much more to you,
Than just a passing tide

My life was yours for taking
You just have had to ask.
But you chose to ruin it
And honey,
You have done a wonderful task.

Has it been so long?
Since I have been loved
Or is it just my despair,
I can’t seem to figure it out
Or maybe
Now I just don’t care.

  • This is my biggest fear . I always think about the worse to happen not be surprised or hurt when it does. I love my husband, we are just married but I am afraid of that day when I will ask ...

  • My husband and I have been married for almost 25 years and it seems like it's over. He is disabled and since this happened we do nothing together anymore. We have come to separate bedrooms, no talking, or anything. So this poem is perfect

  • I know this feeling. Half the time I don't even feel we are a couple anymore, just a partnership. Even when we are together I feel alone. We never do things together, as a couple. Sometimes I feel like I might as well be single, since I am already alone.
