When You Are Not Here

When you're not here my heart aches and my soul feels empty like a penniless jar. 
My words fall deaf on your ears
You left me to take care of our son alone. 
You left me feeling lonely and with a forever 
Broken heart. 
A silver hope comes in my direction of hope that I am not alone. 
Only to be used and cast aside like you did. 
Now flooded with more trust issues then before. 
My joy And solace I carried for six months to only realizr you don't care about your children at all, 
An anger burned inside of me, 
I felt  renewed like a phoenix rising from the ashes this child I birthed will not be unloved but he will no my love as his mother  and I am going to protect him forever as long as I have breath.
