The ex came around,
picked up the kids
at his own leasure
shoving another dagger
into a heart cold
and hungry for love.
Not sure about all
the details, just about
his manner and behaviour
and the fact that he used her
as the whiping post
for his outrages.
No, no one else
in the family knows
about the real story,
but she told me
and yes, maybe I don't
know him, but.
So the ex came by
and now shes alone
for the first time
in a lot of nights
with no kids to hear
and take care of.
And all she knows
is that she wants love
to be hers again like
it was, or has ever been
in her life and that
love is coming home.
