Nary Does A Night Pass
That Day! That fateful, tragic day in November!
Ne'er shall I forget, cursed I am to always remember!
Only but one thing did you accomplish on that day-
To usher the best Father our children will have, away!
Nary does a night pass where I am not forced to cry myself to sleep-
Due the deceit offered, bias harbored-promises you failed to keep!
Always must I carry the burden of your thoughtless acts,
Ne'er shall I know why you acted with none of the facts!
One day it will hit you, as though you should known all along
That not only were you deceitful and full of wrath, but also, wrong!
Not may you invent such a thing, in your own mind
Then feel the world has wronged you, when your 'truth', they don't find!
Think of all, as logically as you may-
Then only, shall you allow yourself past that day!
