Humpty Dumpty House

Humpty Dumpty House A home. The one he promised you. That white picket fence, light flooded rooms. A swing on a tree in the front yard. He promised, I'm sure he did. He promised, to fill it with laughter. It was where you were both supposed to dream. The gathering place of love, of family, of friends. Sadly, it was a place of pretend. For you a dark fairy tale. Wrapped in a pretty shell, it’s perfect beautiful lines Curved away from you. Then the cracks appeared, spreading at the speed of his lies. You so desperately wanted to trust those eyes. You thought he was different from other guys. Him presenting his perfect disguise. No amount of renovations Could repair the cracks. The essence of you under attack. A beautiful dream painted black. You couldn’t, you wouldn't Put it back together again Your house was no home, it was a place of pain Helplessly you watched it crumble. Forced to walk away from it all. The cracks too many it had to fall You had your answers. You needed to hold your head tall. You seen a future beyond eggshell walls. You deserved better, Your own happily ever after. The dreams you held matter. Tears can turn to laughter. For you Fairy tales were not enough You deserved a foundation made of better stuff. Beyond your broken, you found your dream. Thankfully, wonderfully, amazingly, God answered Both of our prayers. He gifted us harmony.
