Where did the man I marry go?
I’m living with a person I do not know.

He was so sweet, loving and kind,
Or was he? And I was just blind.

He said with me he wanted to grow old,
Now he feels no love, his heart is so cold.

With nerves on edge and a heart full of fear,
I listen to cruel words as he sits and sneers.

He never has anything nice to say,
And blames me for his ugly ways.

His eyes are so full of anger and hate,
He tells me he hates me and wants to separate.

My heart has been broken beyond repair,
My sprite has left me replaced with despair.

Alcohol is his love and life,
Taking the place of his wife.

What a sad write.
The bottle or me...is about all you can say now, then he must choose.
Hopefully, this isn't about your own homebrew.

Blame is the nectar of imply
and why to me the butterfly.

Very sad. Alcohol alters consciousness and the consequences are unfathomable.

Well written piece.

Love,
Margherita
