Kacey Greenlee Poet Free verse

''Treading Water''

I am run down,beat,exhausted,there is nothing left.
Swallowed in deadened emotion.
Feeling as though the price of my sacrifice is to much to bare.
To keep safe what I cherish most.
Yet the test of time has shifted gears.
Love prevent evil.
I shall rapture his sins.
Stand strong in belief.
Strength will prevail our destiny.
                                                                                         
                                                                                         
                                                                                         
                                 Divorced,aching struggle between ex-husband and ex-wife
has inspired this piece/child  custody.
