Gruntles and Gripes of a Married Man
You, you, and you
I've slept for two decades --
just this feeling left
I, I, and I
the only man you've loved --
nothing much has changed _________________ If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all.

Your use of the repetition of the pronouns “You” and “I” adds an emotional weight to the poem.
Below is my reply:
With a man
who is a mere male,
she smiles at around the guests.
By his wife
he sits silently,
pining for one-night stands. _________________ Time is nothing but a disquiet of the soul |

A good description of dealing with a marital relationship between a long-married, routine- stifled, couple.
I think the title is less inviting, and the scenario explored in the ericcoliu’s reply is an inevitable development for the couple described in Robart’s poem. _________________ Don't imitate me;
it's as boring

I like the last line of the first verse "just this feeling left ".
But I'm not sure that the repetition of 'You' and 'I' really adds anything to the poem especially in such a short one, each word counts. It may work for others, but not for me, sorry.
Happy New Year! |

Lake, thanks for sharing your thoughts. I'll think them over and maybe revise my poem later.
Happy New Year to you. _________________ If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all. |

I've revised my poem and changed its title to Gruntles and Gripes of a Married Man.

Hi!Lake:
I hope my new title will give you a hint of why I use the repetition of "you" and "I."
