i feel as if I'm in kind of a bad place in my life right now.

 no one told me that marriage was supposed to be like this.

 this...hard.

 no one said you would me fighting every night. 

no one mentioned that i would feel so angry all the time. 

no one passed along that i would feel my lowest right when my life is supposed to take off.

no one told me that i would feel like my heart is numb and ripping at the same time.

no one whispered that i would have doubts.

no one called me and said my voice would become dull every time i spoke to him.

no one wrote me and told me i would be sleeping alone.

no one told me i would forget how to smile.

no one said tears would replace laughs.

no one mentioned the fear.

no one passed along that i would feel alone in a marriage of two.

no one told me about the hurt. 

but no one ever told me to give up.
