I left my ex husband about 3 months ago. I wrote the following poem about him.

Betrayer

How you did so betray me,

Ashamed,

Of who I am,

Of what I want.

That is what you made me.


You think I am the betrayer,

But I say nay,

I see you for what you are,

I see you for who you are.

You are a deceiver.


How you did so deceive me,

Angry,

At Who I am,

At what I want.

You see that and now you believe me.


Your detriment is to yourself,

Your arrogance was your downfall,

And I rid myself of you,

May you live in piece with yourself.

I have missed you and have to say that I kind of saw this coming.  It was looming like a truck going like a bat out of hell your way.  I am sorry that you are going through this though.  Please, email me.  You know the address and the way back to friends who care about you.
