it started with a lustful glance
then my refusal of your touch
until we wed
i told all my friends
that you were a miracle
God's saving grace
in the form of a bride

you wrapped your identity
up in who i was
and we got wrapped up
in anger, selfishness
and regret

yeah,
all these years later
there is still love
but now we don't
understand each other
at all
