waiting for a husband
for almost a decade
raising three daughters
with the money he is sending
pretending to live like
a satisfied housewife
stuck in my own wheel
a cage to burn until
breathing in and out
gets harder as the air thins out
getting crazier by the second
feeding on lies and doubt
i'm betting on a sadness
betting on another life
one that he's living
with a another wife
this time of day, he's on video
telling me a story i already know
pretending to live like
a satisfied housewife
stuck in my own wheel
a cage to burn until
it all crashes down
collapses in this town
