Injured Love...

I feel so worthless, like I don't deserve anything from you.
Was that always your intention, or is that feeling really true?
Am I really so horrible, and a failure as mom and wife?
Do you really have room for me in your busy life?
Late at night I wonder if we've mistakenly taken our vows.
For the feelings of love my heart does not arouse.
We have no time for each other anymore.
And, on this marriage we've apparently closed the door.
We masquerade to our friends and family that everything is fine.
But really, when no one is looking, our marriage is on the line.
Neglect and harsh words have injured our love.
Something we may get over, or never recover from.
