Don'T Poem by Lydie Mathers

Don't take this path of confusion and wondering,

It may lead you to no more than a broken heart to see what his eyes have seen,

Don't ask those questions that make your soul long to cry out,

You very well may find out what it's all about,

Don't tell your self you need to know,

It may be nothing or it could be the shadow in your home that runs this show,

Don't seek to cling or beg that he should stay,

You could be doing the one thing sure to make him run away,

Don't give him another try if indeed you find that the injustice in your mind was real,

For what good is that in the end it won't change how you feel,

It won't change the shattered trust or broken vows,

It won't change the life altering hurt in your heart,

Nor will it show who you truely are,

Abeautiful woman who has given him all,

Blessed him with your love and children,

How dare you tell yourself that it was your fault,

He caused this shame and tumult,

You are strong you are wise beautiful and brave,

Walk out that door with out looking back and start new days,

Don't you see what could happen if you refuse to calm down,

So caught up in surging sea of emotions that will crush you as you drown,

Please, I beg of you,

Don't take this path of pain,

For in the end you may find it was nothing more than a dream, an image in your brain
