Seeking My Path

How can I reconcile
A life led with pain and fake smiles
To paint the picture of better past times
When all was cohesive, above all the lies
And countless attacks seemed in the rear view…
But how wrong was I, it began anew.
I don’t even know how to explain its start
Brought forth from a person with such a kind heart
And then another, a mother to me
Unleashed most incredibly
Against my poor husband, who try as he has
Can never earn favor from his mom and his dad
They’re stuck behind screams and lies and pride
and diligently stand by another man’s side
Who has no care to do as he should
But instead wreaked havoc with whatever he could
And tore down our family with hate so raw
That we’ll never recover, but must follow the law
Act like all is fine, all is well
Let the accusers ring the final bell.
 
Don’t look for apologies, retractions or such
So long as they’re happy, at the cost of so much.
How can I reconcile…
