So since you guys in here don't know me. My mother and father have been married for 15 years. During this time i've watched my dad have six different mistresses, continually lie to my mother and do things that i'm not proud of. You may ask yourself why my mum stays with him, well she loves him... My family is well known in our community and too them our lives are picture perfect. My mother and father a happy loving couple but none of them see the truth that's hidden ever so neatly behind the curtains. For the last few weeks mum's been scared my dad's cheating again, i don't think he is but she's worried and been having these dreams.. anyhow.. enjoy.. ____________________________________________ A Beautiful Lie So tell me was it worth it To see the tears run down her face You broke her down good this time I hope you drown in your disgrace She fell amongst the damsels And died in her distress You couldn’t see the bloodshed But it was splatterd on her dress It took 15 years of marriage A bullet and a gun To re-write all the chapters That she wished had not begun With the sound of breaking glass The bullet left the gun Smashed right through the picture frame And embedded in her son With swollen eyes she fell to the ground Oh god this can’t be true Please don’t let him die tonight Oh god what do I do _________________ She awakes again from the same dream That she’s been having for days Each time there’s a different ending That starts in many ways She will fall amongst the damsels But yet she shall not cry After all he is her husband And she lives a beautiful lie |

You worded this situation so very well! It is tough to live under these circumstances (for your Mother) and to witness this state of things (for you). Sad, but I comprehend your wish for justice. May he "come to his senses" and listen to you! Very good, intense write. Revenge is never the solution though ... Love, Margherita "Love is the One who masters all things; |

"She will fall amongst the damsels But yet she shall not cry After all he is her husband And she lives a beautiful lie" Loved that last stanza... "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |
