When

When what you thought was truth 
was really lies
when all the affection turned into 
distance
When love turned into hate
When rasing your child was left up 
to one of you to do
When a complete stranger knows 
more about your love life than you
When his harsh words became 
harsh violence against your flesh
When your aching heart decided to 
stop working
When he realizes a little too late that
He hasnt been acting like a man
When he realizes he lost the best 
thing in his life and he will never get 
it back
