pillsrs

this marriage has two pillars
one tends to walk away
every now and then
to hold up the world larger than this small abode
so the other moves to the centre
to hold it
small though it is
it needs a pillar
but it was meant tonto stand on 2
and when it stands on one
the weight crushes it just a bit
it crumbles in parts
plaster falling off
exposing ugly beams 
the paint peels off

then the other comes back and it shifts a little to the left
but then it walked again 
and it shifted centr again
more plaster crumbling 

and then
and then
it starts to think
it doesn't need the other pillar
it can hold it up
crumbling though it is

but it's bitter now
not ao pretty and smooth 
and the house gets mad
unstable unsteady 
missing the missing pillar
mad at the onlynaviale pillar 
blaming it foe pushing the other away 
from then

and them pillar has no way to win 
just stands there holding it up
crumbling inside now
