Not Love, Simply Impression!

Amidst teenage chatter
Random laughter, TV blasting,
I had to ask, why all the noise.
Then came the surprising answer.
From none other than my husband.
Because we are all human.
Was that sarcasm, a hint of awareness?
I ignored him, he obviously is not on
My team, unsure of what it is he knows.
But it is clear; it is not for the love of me.
More for the convenience or fringe benefit.
For my presence, I am expected to remain.
To give the impression that he is doing well.
