My Husband's Brother

My Husband's Brother
Has no care for another
11 years of nothing but Hell
Your brother just figures oh well
My story the world will know
And everyone will see your brother as low
You will have no one to blame
Except your brother who came
To ruin everything we built
Over 11 years it is time to quit
Thank your brother for it all
When there is no one left to call
After 11 years of your brother's Hell
Me and my cats will tell
The whole world and ring the bell
All about your brother's living Hell
Our 35 years of marriage he has ended
Never again to be mended

Lisa, a well penned emotive poem. Sounds like a terrible Brother in law.

Alison Thank You so much it is a horrible situation, the rest of their family won't do anything to help, they won't even take their own brother for 2 weeks, because they don't want to be lied to and stolen from, by a 66 year old man that thinks that the world revolves around him and owes him, hear his family tell it them people who invited Kelley to smoke that pcp tied his hands behind his back and held a firearm to his head and made him smoke it in 1987 it has been the worst 11 years of my life all because of this pos.
