You threw me out,
your loving wife,
over a mistake i made,
after i had your child
i was depressed, scorned
and unwilling to rest.
I thought it was forever,
vows mean everything,
yes i broke your heart.
yes i crossed the line.
but vows meant everything,
i was willing to fix it,
to take the time.
now i have your daughter
and she cried night after night
because she misses her dad.
Its the loniest life in the world
knowing i ruined what we had.
But it's refreshing to
see how you are
when put under the microscope.
you're like a parasite,
taking away your child's hope.
She babbles about dada and bubbles
but she never sees your loving face.
it may be a blessing in disguise
because love isnt something you showed in the first place.
I need diapers and clothes
for my girl, but you are not around.
i need support as the mother of your child
but the supporter can't be found.
good riddance to you
and your lies.
good riddance to you
and your countless spies.
are you trying to pin me as a neglectful mother,
so her new mom can be
your signifigant other?
I'm going to laugh at you in court
and deny your rights
to show the dead beat you are.
so to back up my case, you sod
go back to your girlfriend, and abandon us more.
i buy her the diapers myself
and she is going to be warm this fall.
in the winter she will have a new coat
and in the spring, i'll take her to the riverside park.
I loved you so much
and i shared my child with you, my husband.
But your true colors are showing
and i don't want them.
we've moved on,
so pack your bags
and let us live our lives.

Oh ouch! This one really hurts to read it. The emotion is strong, the anger reaches out to you, but more than that...the betrayal and hurt linger. Excellent job here!

unfortunately yes. for the most part.. tonight was the first we have heard of him in a week.
its beyond ridiculous. my child has to suffer. its so bullshit. -
Wow is the first word that comes to my head. Is this true? Even if it's not (which i hope it isn't), this is damn good and i love the way your voice is angry, yet you exhibit control, a very difficult accomplishment. Nice going. best regards, always.

He is le asshat.
More literal than what I'm used to from you, but good none-the-less. Very raw, and angry, *shakes fist* type thing, you know?
Much loves to you!
