What did you say to make her stay 

What lie did you feed her this time

You promised you'd take care of us

But you're gone, you got yourself gone

And you left behind a broken home

Your family you left alone

You said you wouldn't go down that road

How could we have foreseen it all?

What did she have that made you throw it all away? 

And now you're broken, wasted

You can't undo what you've done

You are nothing but a liar

 

And what about the little boy 

His childhood you chose to destroy

You wrote this story

Your hand, your pen

And if you could do it all again 

Would you leave him

Like you left me?


The author's comments:

This is a quite personal one, based on a cheating relationship. I won't go into details because it's pretty personal. But enjoy, it's not as abstract as my first poem but I think it's just as good.
