Happy Ever After This

As the depression sets in
   I don't know where to began
      loss of a child
         to the wild flower
            I hope she grows within
 
Abuse of another
    but... they still chose each other
       Sadden I wish she could see
           what I escaped
              Before I would have been be-lated

And this I'm stating
   Abused I was
     Addicted I was
        Depressed I was
            Heart broken I was
                Taken I was

And still  stand
   with no other hand
       within mine

The sea I throw all the hatred 
    I have within my harden heart
       Trying to make a new start

My glass up to the ending
   of a sad story
     and to a "Happy Ever After This" 

A look into my none published book "Get It Together"
