I'm waiting for you one last time

Not knowing if you will show

Or if I will ever again see your face

Either possibility fills me with dread

For you are a monster that I loved

One about to be let free from obligation

With no civil recourse, though deserved

And I'm still angry as day one

So I hope you're the one shattered

By the wrongs you committed

But so far the only ones suffering

Are me and my young son

I'm anxious of the court room

Having arrived God-forsakenly early

And no clock exists to mark the time

But today the judge hands down finality

And I will wait and agonize over you no more
