Accusations, hatred, bitterness,
When did you become all I despise?
You refuse to see the good in me,
You cover the truth with your silly lies.

Questioning, threatening, always seeking pain,
When oh when will you learn,
There is nothing to gain,
All savagery often returns.

The golden years are gone all too soon,
You laugh as I sit and cry under the moon,
Boredom, lonliness now second nature,
When did you stop hearing life's wonderous tune?

I have in me the spirit of light,
But you've weakened me now,
Don't know if I can continue the fight,
Why not be the man and make it all right?

Once again Isis..great job and I understand where you're coming from. Unfortunately, sometimes people never take on the role that they should and be the man or be the adult in a situation. That's where we have to step in...you have the strength to make it through...just keep your determination. You can win the fight.   *hugglez*

filling my head

Angel, thanks it's not a fight as such, I feel, that I am the one with balls or a backbone, holding our little corner of the world together, and I am tired, so tired, of having to be the strong one.  I want to be treated and respected as a woman...
Thanks for reading and your kind comments

 Do you live by the book, do you play by the rules
Do you care what is thought by others about you
If this day is all that is promised to you
Do you live for the present, the future the past...

Isis,
Good luck with getting him to see.  We must first want to change before it can truly happen.  It cannot happen until he realizes what he has done.  Great poem!!

Sometimes, even when we think that they can see, they don't. . . you almost have to hit them in the face with it. . .

It can be very discouraging when you're the only one who is trying. . . and you want to give up. . .

Excellent words, my friend. . .

I know Isis...somehow this picture is all screwed up...life should be loving and caring and giving and sharing...I know we both agree on that.   AS you say there is absolutely nothing to gain by critical or negative behavior.   Very nice writing.  James
