Why do men do this?

He was unable to settle in his chair
And got up once more to pace around.
A strong man, totally defeated by his loss
Nothing could distract or pacify him.
He focused only on his loss.
Disbelief had given way to confusion
Which in turn had been replaced by frustration.
How could this happen?
It simply is not possible!
Here one minute and gone the next!
My inactivity aroused his anger
“Don’t you care?”
I don’t know how much more I can take,
His constant searching infuriates me.
I wish he would just accept things as they are,
But he will go on searching…….
Until the remote control is found
And he holds the source of power once more.
