Another Week-Ends (Senryu's Plus} ~Day One He to me promised Never to abandon me After thirty years ~Day Two A typical lie In more ways than one, as he Spent the nights with "her" ~And On the Third Verbal battles, mine Becoming physical, he Leaving scarred, both ways ~Day Forward Suffering's the norm Can't he end our marriage first? "Weak", my words for him ~Day Five I'm sorry's flooded Now, understanding abuse Not accepting it ~Day Six Thought me stupid, he 911 was dialed by me Warning, visitor ~And On the Seventh Day He to me promised Never to hurt me, again Another week-ends.... or I tried this time to offer him the chance to end in peaceful way A love of years, commitment filled but once again, she called, he swayed. Respect, is that too much to ask, to flaunt not, her in front of me? Of course he promised to my face behind my back, he disagreed. Tears, I tried these ninety days to stave them off, to dry my eyes I've left behind the "anti" meds and then my strength, soon realized. This to him has raised his fears and now he fights me tooth and nail. Standing ground, my struggle hurts the pain filled days, become my jail. Some would say, to me the hurt that I am feeling, I don't own the rights to it, belong to all but no one knows these scars have grown. Have taken over softened skin and scraped and cut me deep inside to never heal, what once was loved forever lost, to be denied. So once again a week has passed another one of pain not shared but present, given me each day by one, who doesn't feel nor care. ~Wynter.... *just a little venting < !signature--> "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (edited 11-20-2000).] |

Grab your self respect by the hand and walk away from this ...you are much to nice a person to have to put up with this kind of playing both ends against the middle....you should NEVER!! alow yourself to be abused.. this person doesn't love you...90 percent of abused mates end up eventually leaving their mate......give him to the other one and swallow that old pride and walk away from the piece of @**@*......take care ethome |

jlocke- thank you ethome- he's leaving, just has that upperhand at the moment, pushing me to the limits, but no more...it is funny strange how one wants to go, lets you know, but doesn't make the move, wanting you to be the one. In the end life is but a game and no one ever wins. Thank you E. I am not taking anything anymore, not one ounce from him or friends( or maybe that's enemies) that feel my words are a "wine" as some would say but spelled differently. *s ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II |
