Once I stood in our kitchen
held our baby daughter
did our dishes
fuming
You didn’t help
weren’t a partner
weren’t a parent
frustrating
I thought to myself
very clearly
stick it out until she’s 18 before
divorcing
You decided to leave
when she was 18
I guess we make our future while
prophesying

Such a long time to deal with a person who you thought was going to be what you needed, only to find out what you needed was you. You amaze & inspire me with your strength and determination.
