Coping With My Loss
Coping With My Loss

How long must this go on
its been three years since you've been gone

The change you put me through is NOT fair
and still being close to someone is VERY rare

Some of my wounds still fester with in me
Others have healed and I have learned from these

I need to let you know that your son is still the same.
A chip off the ole block... You should be ashamed.

I wrote your son to ask for a apology
he is selfish like you daddy.... he never answered me

Angry I am as you can see,
but at least its not the RAGE it use to be.

I use to hurt my self and had no self esteem.
but I have learned... being in a family is part of a team.

A Family shouldn't have to walk on egg shells, because the father drinks.
They should be loved, and able to express them selfs.      No matter what you think.

If you would have taught me these lessons earlier in life
I could have been anything..... even a good mother and wife

Where ever you are I hope you can see
how your family has turned out to be

Your wife is in denial     your son is a ASS   and your step daughter is into greed
and as for me, your daughter.... I'm still trying to find the lost child with in me

I'm breaking the cycle NO MORE ABUSE!
I've learned to say NO!!   and I've put it to good use.
