When Things Go Wrong

~WHEN THINGS GO WRONG~ The marriage is over, boredom stepped in, So out with the old and a new one steps in. Fun all the way, money to spend But suddenly you find there will be no good end… Your heart you were to keep safe from being broken The love of this man you will find is nothing but token He is lavish with money he gives your wants and your needs But it comes with a price when your habit he feeds. He started you on a downward spiral If you don’t get off quick you will lose it all… Your kids you have sworn to keep by your side Will not want to stay if you end up inside… Through possessiveness and violence he is in your life Don’t make the mistake of becoming his wife Get rid while you can before it’s too late Bring your kids up in love and never in hate. You have the support you know where to look You won’t get any help from reading a book Turn to your family and listen while you can Think very hard and get rid of this man.

I wrote this for a family member after I was asked to help sort her out, she obviously did not want to listen so I write her this. She phoned me to say it touched her more than any words from family had up to that point and she loves me all the more for it, It is a special write for me and we are even closer than before. It has not got rid of him yet but I live in hope xx
