Michelle Lanting Poem
You broke 4 hearts instead of just one
Mine, Dylan's, Alexis' and your son's
Love must come so easily to you
To so many broken and used
"Let's get back to the people we once were
But can you remember, it is all one big blur
"It hurts me too," so you say
You seem to forget all in one day
It's to hard and you don't want to try anymore
There you go running for the door
You say your not like your father in anyway
But, when you look in the mirror, it is him that looks away
It is me that has changed so much
But, I am here crying for you touch
All the broken promises that never came true
At least now, I can see straight through you
All the lies, the words spoke so dear
Leaves nothing but a deafen tone in my ear
I gave you what everone is looking for
Unconditional love you left at the door
You will never have love like mine twice
That kind of luck is never with the roll of the dice
When you find yourself alone and cold
I will still be shining bright and bold
My love will always stay true
But never again, be all about you
So have fun living life to the most
I will raise my glass and make a toast
To the biggest fool life has shown to me
Beacause he is so selfish and conceited I see
He will always be alone
Because all he thinks about is ME, ME, ME

Michelle Lanting Poem
What happens now?
Was everything worth it?
The angry words that have been said
That comes from you being mislead
Was it worth all the sacrifices, like giving up your dreams?
And all you were trying to do was make the other succeed
Was it worth all the bumps and bruises that you would hide or lie about?
And the whole time you are filling with doubt
Was it worth your children seeing you crying
Tell them everything is fine, but all you're doing is lying
All these things seem to happen overnight,
Never seeming to have the ending light.
There are no easy answers and no hope, you feel cursed
You hope he sees the damage and he goes back to putting your feelings first
You hope you can have the trust and honest back
along with the laughter and tenderness he is starting to lack
You hope the best friend you had in one another would return
And there are no traps or hidden agendas new to learn
You hope to talk about the dreams you both wanted at one time
Now you hate to even think about tommorow
Hope was the one thing that was never borrowed
But hope is the thing that has left and betrayed you
You feel broken, beat down, nothing but black and blue
All this and you wonder why, Was it worth it?

Michelle Lanting Poem
Broken, beaten confused, and confined
This emotional hell was your gift, all mine
I gave you everything I possible could give
When I had no more, it was me you could not live with
Picking up the pieces and no where to go
Hatred, cruelty, and uncaring is all you showed
Not your concern, just get out, do not stay
Your not the same, you were never that way
3 weeks and you have not heard from me
Am I getting over you? So you call and see
For a minute, my old David shined through
You saw my love was still there and true
More fun for you, playing a sadistic game
Again, broken-hearted and left only with shame
Death is what I long for now these days
Wishing this was just a dream, nothing but a haze
Why did you do this, was this your plan?
Will this be the end and you clap your hands?
Life was fun and I embraced the future
Now it is nothing but everyday torture.
I opened up all of myself for you to take
What did you do? Used it and waited for it to break
I have to keep going till God tell me it is time
Until then, I am trapped in your hell, all mine

Michelle Lanting Poem
As much as I try to forget you
The more you cloud my thoughts
You proven our love was all a lie
My soul was ripped out and left to die
I try to look forward to the future
A smile on my face is nothing but torture
A nightmarish hell replays every night
Proving there is no hope of light
I tell myself I will not let you win
But, thoughts of death is now my sin
They say I better without you around
Then, why can't I pick myself up off the ground
I use to love life and enjoyed it's party
Now, confined by mixed up emotions
Nothing but crying, questions, regret, and hatred
Trying to forgive you, seeing nothing but red
You never explained to me what I did wrong
You said it was nothing, the same old song
Then, how can you be so cruel to me
I'm not to question, just, this is how it will be
The kids and I have to start all over again
Doing it all and still trying to remain sane
Like nothing ever happened, not good or bad
You want to forget the family we had
How do you forget in a short time, like you did
When I have a hard time just trying to keep it hid
