Without Discipline

Once there was a beautiful boy blue eyes and snow white skin, Huge smile melted many hearts with dimple on his chin. Innocence enlightened all who came to see, With rosey cheeks and baby squeaks this boy had turned to be... Spoiled rotten as a child no discipline for wrong, Though the adults would not spank him for once baby did belong. The teen years were a warning of future all down hill, Though no-one seems to care no more he made his peers all ill. Marriage, he tried his best though never was he taught, When respect is taken respect it should be brought. Volatile to his wife relationship had crumbled, she disappeared and back not peered at 'it' that made her humbled. Though he was sad she left him he did not understand, Consequences come about quite often much unplanned. Temper could not be controlled with spite now in his core, Raging at all others trouble even more... Like a puzzle piece which never fit confinement they arranged, Ponder some- the baby boy his life and where it changed.
