Every night
he comes home
seeing his wife
knowing there unhappy
but not understanding
that he needs
to do something else
he says hes going
out with some friends
but instead
pulls into her drive
she answers the door
wearing that silky gown
as he pulls her close
forgets his other life
with the wife
and kids at home
nothings wrong
he just wants something else
wanting more excitement
not knowing everything
he needs is at home waiting
not a clue of what happening
hes to blinded by her beauty
to see whats really
important to him
there in the living room
engaging in what couples do
as they here
an open to the door
its her
his wonderful wife
eyes filled with tears
and holding that gun
in her hand
not understanding
what she did wrong
as she gets on her knees
and prays to God
hes frantic
saying words
he don't know
she pulls the trigger
and it is then
that he understands
everything he had
and now its gone
