Home life gone bad

Home life gone bad

A Poem by SmittyJas
"

lost in love and life missed excitement

"
Home life gone bad
This marriage I had
was sacked from behind
A home wrecker showed up

My life was never the same
Lost of family and friends
Like you had the black death
You wish you could give your life a rest

No one expected this to happen to us
we showed every sign of love
Family values were written on the wall
We read and did not recall

All the good advice we gotten
The pain was to great
You didn't want to see me through
We stopped counting on one and other

I stepped aside while you held another
Made me fell less of a man
Knowing I failed at loves games
And hurt you so
 
The one I promised to love 
Forever and a day
The promises we made to each other
didn't matter any more

Things got compacted
When a loss of a job
Was about ever six month
You couldn't rely on my pay

once again I fell like I failed you some how
But is was the nature of the beast
I chosen a bad profession
It left me in a bad position

I felt like I was being stoned
In a world where money matters
you can't survive on love
you took on to much responsibility

The good Lord was watching
But didn't walk the walk
I should of got out sooner than I did
No future in the business I was in

Job ops got smaller and smaller
I had to find a new profession
back to school I went
I stayed on the wrong track

I didn't have a plan
to revise my work life
I should of down sized my house
got rid of that new car I bought

Lowered the cost of living in my house
refinanced and move on the lower payment plans
Like most the people in town
but digging out was to much to bare

I did not walk away from my wife and kids
She took in another man
Our marriage was over
and moving on was all I could do

Single My life is better now
I have the respect of my children
and that's all I need to carry on
I don't put myself down or wear a frown
