Everlasting Love Poem by Renee Louis

There are things in my life i can't quite explain
though i wish i had a book to do so
things get so complicating and twisted
but somehow i never seem to get away

i have something
and it's scary indeed
but now i have to live with
all the choices i have made

i wish it wasn't like this
being all alone and scared
but i didn't make that decision
you did by leaving us behind

i loved you with all i had
but it never seemed enough
you had to try to change me
which pushed us further apart

i tried to find a way to fix things
you thought i was leaving for sure
but all i really needed
was some time to get my head on good

i'm not happy you left us high and dry
but i'm not upset either
because now i realize
we're better off with out you

we didn't need you're controlling habits
or dirty mouth
we didn't need your superficial love
or doubting thoughts

we just needed someone to care
he just needed a daddy
but now i know
you never truly cared

all you wanted was a 'friend'
that being lightly said
you walked away from something so pure
now you have to live with the regret

while my son and i have everything we desire
everlasting love
