Togetherness is gone
(husband and wife dialogue)
My wife,
Stop cleaning the house
Please come here
To accompany me
My husband,
The house is dirty
We aren't able to pay the maid
You've already retired
My wife,
Don't cook
It's a holiday
Let us eat outside the home
My husband,
Don't eat outdoors
We need efficient
You've already retired
My wife,
Let's keep me company
Why the rush to sleep
It's still early
My husband,
I have to get up early
To clean the house
And prepare breakfast
My wife,
I have to go this morning
My friends were waiting
Long we don't meet
My husband,
Be careful on the road
Greetings for your friends
But, why not breakfast?
My wife,
You have fallen asleep last night
I see you sleeping soundly all
I don't have the heart to wake you
My husband,
I'm sorry
I don't welcome you home
But, why should sleep on the sofa?
My wife,
I have to go again
I have social activities
With my old friends
My husband,
Don't forget dinner at home
You look very dapper
Although not wear perfume
My wife,
sorry, we were very busy
I had dinner with friends
Happy dinner, dear
My husband,
I woke up too early
But you're not at home
Where are you?
My wife,
I came home at midnight
I have to go early in the morning
I don't have the heart to wake you
My husband,
I just finished washing clothes
I've found the clothes that you wear today
But, why the smell of perfume?

I like your poem. I heard this kind of conversation from my married friend.
Anyway, you did a great job!

I like it, very open minded and maybe it really happens on a real relationship and this is one of an examples of having a husband and wife.

Hi mr.Hsofyan. I like your poem. We know, it is story that happened often. But I got the real messege there. As young couple it can be a lesson. I did not mean that I blame a wife but it is true like in the story. Sometimes as a wife, they (i don't want to call it "us" eventhough I am a wife from my husband surely. LOL ) does not aware about it. They ignore about how they wear cloth front of their husband or spend much time to take care houshold and no time for their husband as your story at the poem. thx mr hsofyan.
