You hear the yells and the screams and you know what it all means.

You know it will lead to the inevitable passive aggressive comments.

 His failures and her sins will always go hand and hand.

Their need to see who’ll win and come out as the better man.

So you hide and read away the pain

You find every story that deals with happily ever after just to feel good again.

But then the story ends and you take a look around just to find you’re back where you started.
