A Gross Understatement

Just once, could you
Understand my 
Side of
Things?

Over and over again and we
Never
Even get to the point that I'm

Mostly right!
Open your eyes to
Reality!
Even a child can see

That it's your fault and you're the
Only one to

Blame!
Let go
And just deal with your
Mistakes.
Even though I don't know how that feels, I'm always here for you.

This is so good. You really have a gift and I want to thank you for giving one of my favorite forms back to me in a new and exciting way. I wrote an Acrostic for the first time since I was a teenager because of reading your excellent work. Thank you!

Brandee I reckon that like me he should just face the fact that momma knows best and the more I listen to my wife the better off I am - God bless
