Our Betrayed

We spend the times in complete silence
The memories a once comforting past
Haunt me from my broken soul
I always knew you weren't invested
Yet the lies were comforting my broken soul
Your kindness was ironically confused with regrets
The devastation keeping you to yourself
I ask, I pray, I stay
Then the resentments reveal a her I never expected to see
The stolen heart from my family
The anger inside as I gave it my all
We spend so much investing where it isn't ment to be
We forget the people right in front of our heart
The pain inside as you shatter me within
Every word I grasp greedily
As you slip away from me
Only for me to compete for something I never knew was at risk
Your heart, your stolen heart
I never realized was gone
Tearing more than just our family apart
We wait for thee as we have before
Only for our hearts to be betrayed from within
Take me aside and feed me the lies you instead gave to her
Those things we need to fix falling from my grasp
As I sit silently aside waiting for my family to be whole again.......

Thank you- I write a lot when things are confusing
It has been 2yrs since my last entry but I think I need to keep up my words as a way to complete my soul. It is very good therapy for me.
