Permalink  

the way that i deal with my emotions is through poetry. It seems to help me get theings in perspective as well as letting my feelings out. I was asked to post this Poem on here. It is one I wrote the night i decided i needed help. Last night...


 


My Anger


My anger Swells


As I think of my Life


Time I feel i wasted


Being your wife


Trying to change you


Taking all the blame


For the last 3 years


Feeling all the shame


All that is over


All that is done


Listening to your excuses


Every last one


It is time for you


To take the reigns


Hit your rock bottom


Take your own shame


Deal with your drinking


Your pills, your drugs


Only then can i offer you


My support and my hugs


Do what you have to


Get the help you need


Only then can we heal


Our Broken Family....

Oh my!! 


You have NO idea how powerful and moving your words have been to me today.


Everything is the same, only one change a would have to say 33 yrs not just 3, and for him to find healing in whatever his demons are.
