"you've been married 27 years"
"you're so lucky".
I don't feel lucky.
determination?
or did I even think
of the outcome?
neither wants to be here.
why are we?
we still care...
...but, love?
love seems farthest from your mind,
not even our kid is safe.
why do you insist 
on treating us this way?
questions turn to anger -
anger clouds the judgment.
your reactions are killing us.
if you just thought about
what you said,
and what you did...
the abuse.
not physical,
but it might as well be - 
it hurt us deeper than you'll ever know.
changed us -
into a mess 
of emotions
we don't know how to control.
but you do.
and control you do,
both you and us...
every day
can't do anything
can't buy anything
unless it came from you
aren't marriages supposed to be equal?
how is this equal
when I can hardly do anything
without your approval...
you are *such* a good actor
might win "best in picture"
for your performance 
in this show.
you may have everyone else fooled,
but you don't fool us...
...still think I'm so lucky?
...you don't know the half of it...
...yes... I am *so* lucky.
