Changing a viewpoint

My partner, disrespects me,


Leaves the house untidy, it really makes me hop

He forgets to bring, something from the shop

It shows he doesn’t value me, shows such lack of care

He doesn’t call me regularly, don’t know how would dare.


I don’t think he really loves me


He flirts with other girls,my patience is crumbling to dust

When he makes decisions, on his own, not a way to trust

He stares at other woman, that really can’t be right

He’s going to get an ear bashing, when he gets home tonight.


Let me hold that thought, is there another way


Am I seeing lack of love, showing insecurity

Is his lack, my need to curb immaturity

If I change my focus, are the omissions huge

Does it mean I am devalued, my minds a centrifuge


Maybe I want to change him, to reflect the image I want to see


Looking with another eye, I love the unique man

I should share his eye for beauty, encourage while I can

He chooses to share with me,  I should be feeling sublime

It’s not about my value, if he errs from time to time


If I change my focus and stop carping, find a way

Our relationship should live ,expand get better every day

If I can’t see him as unique and feel happy with feet of clay

Then I am in the wrong relationship, need to call it a day.
