Week #11: Be My Wife
She followed her head. Moving from place to place, trying them on for size. But she never fit.
And in each place, a man. Please be mine…share my life…stay with me…be my wife.
No. Her answer was always no. Because, inevitably, when they turned their pleading eyes on her, begged her to stay, it came back. Like a transmission from some far off world, his voice, his face, crackled broken through time and space, distracting her, reminding her…
Just fear me, love me, do as I say…
How many hearts would she break before she gave in and followed hers?

Sometimes you get so lonely
Sometimes you get nowhere
