Poetry: Starting over

by Raven Madd

if I dont think of it

doesnt mean I lack care

it means that is a thought

I simply can't bare

To think of how you took my son

and ran for hills

unable to make it here

to pay your bills

No thought to anyone

only about you

things spiraled out of control

not knowing what to do

your such a coward

geez be a man

do your job

and know I can

fight with all the hate

you insistantly gave

you drowned me

rather then save

disillusioned

is your sight

thinking your a man of integrity

and one of great might

ha I say to that

its a bunch of bull

I've had your cup of crap

and now I'm full

but my son

will always be mine

I love him to

and you will find

just paying support

is not all I want

bringing him home

being the final jaunt

as we flee from your home

for it's one of cowardly shame

remember me jerk

remember I no longer take your name
