The Woman Who Saw What Wasn't There
I kept the home fires burning, even when mine went cold.
I married a man who looked like he could hold the sky, but turned out he couldn't even hold me. I found his truth in a closet, folded inside a shirt that wasn't his. I raised our girls alone in a house filled with silence. I'm not bitter — just tired of pretending the man I loved was ever really mine.
What I'm Into: keeping a tidy home, my daughters' laughter, empty fishing trips, the sound of wind through the closet door, loving a man who loved the horizon more
