Ex's
I put aside
All the hurt and pain,
And keep in mind
All the things I’ve gained.
I still remember
The good things too,
From all of the ex’s
I’ve been through.
Ex Number One
Was my first love,
He gave me such inner strength
That there’s nothing I’m afraid of.
From him also came
My special first born son,
And my first wonderful daughter
The second child born.
Ex Number Two
Emotional control came to me,
He also gave my children
The best grandparents ever to be.
He fathered my second son
A child so very wise,
And my last little baby girl
Who gets the eye from all the guys.
Ex Number Three
Gave me the dancing I still long for,
Will there ever be another
With such style and grace on the dance floor?
I even gained a stepdaughter
Who is as special as the rest,
She is also my friend
And I wish her all the best!
Ex Number Four
Was always thoughtful of me,
And he taught me that a handyman
Is something that I could even be.
He tried very much
To make me happy somehow,
He was a wonderful friend
And he’s still my pal.
