A poem to a man making his choices

Tears of my heart

Tears of my heart falling at your feet

Will you run again or will you finally greet

My pain with some honesty and love of your own

Can we find a place to really look to see if we’ve grown?

They tell us I am wrong, they tell us I’m the one

They tell us you need to keep me in shape and get Gods word done.

How have you become so blinded, so jaded to what’s truth

What happened to the honesty you knew in your youth?

You have made choice, who to follow, who to leave

Are you sure you really know it’s them you should believe?

When I walk I am taking with me more than you know

Believe me when I tell you that to them it’s just a show.

Our children don’t understand, they will never know how

You chose strangers over mommy, over your wedding vow.

I will protect you as you destroy me, I will speak of you as good

Can you really say you want this, did you ever think you would?

I’m too hurt to be angry in this mess you have allowed

As you kiss the ring of a madman, I’m ashamed at how you’ve cowed.

I sleep each night beside you, not knowing of the morrow

Wondering of what they’ll convince you as you ignore your families sorrow.

This game is losing its luster; I’ve already lost

My question to you remains, what will it cost?

When they leave you at the wayside as they finally tire of you

Will you understand, then, what it is I must do?

Will I be able to forgive you, will you be ashamed

For letting them trick you into playing their life altering game?

I hope that our daughters will understand when daddy calls again

And tells them he can’t pick them up and doesn’t know when.

Go to your classes, run your little fellowship shrine

When you start to miss your freedom again, don’t forget it’s mine..

Speak of me in unkind words as you miss what we made

But remember what you’ve given up and remember what you paid.

Gosh Shell, it is hard to believe what you had to put up with just because of twi....sigh

You were courageous and intellegent.....two factors that should have been highly valued....instead, it might have cost you your marriage.

Your biggest mistake as I see it, was not being a spineless butt kissing ever groveling worm in leaderships presence....grrrr

That is something that I hated about twi, you were never allowed to be yourself.
