FINDING LOVE AGAIN

I am leaving, to a faraway place where you would never find me, don’t talk about promises we made to each other on the altar because every other promises made were broken by you. I sat on our bed thinking you were mine alone, I bragged to the whole world about how sweet and lovely you were, turns out I was wrong. Friends warned me, I turned deaf ears to them, enemies laughed at me, I thought they were simply hating.

I was home all day making your food and cleaning your house, but you were out all day with the woman you chose and wanted and when you come back, I would gladly bathe with you not knowing you had already been cleaned up by another woman. In bed when I touch you and you pull away, I gave excuses that you were working all day not knowing you were giving the children’s food to the dog. I was content being the good wife, being your friend, mum, and sister, turns out that the sex mate part I was lacking was filled by another “well-meaning” woman.
I mean I am slim and sexy, I work my ass off in the gym trying to be attractive to you all the time, but you left my hot body for the fat, overlapped one. It got me in tears, sorry for calling her fat, that was probably as a result of having all your four children, while I was home praying to God to bless with at least one child of my own.

Don’t be sad, and don’t be sorry because am not any of those right now, I am leaving, all the 12 years I spent in your house were not wasted, they are reminders of how naïve I was even when I thought I was smart. I would find the man of my dreams, we would get married on the beach, we would have three beautiful children and we would grow old together watching the stars every other night.

When you get back, you’d meet your cake on the table, your birthday special dish is on the table, and your favourite wine is adorning the table too. I have arranged the rooms in the house in case you decide to bring in your family. I hope you enjoyed the party she held for you but above all I wish I was her, I wish the children were mine and I wish I was the one who made you happy.
HAVE A GREAT LIFE.
Your ex-wife.
