My Ex Poem by Randy McClave

All you wanted me for was sex
That is why you are now my ex,
I was used by you for almost everything
But, I was never given a promised wedding ring.
I cleaned and I maintained your house
As though I was your spouse,
I took care of your ungrateful children as well
And you allowed them to treat me as hell.
Whenever that we needed to talk
From that opportunity you would always balk,
Anything that I ever wanted us to do
You pretended that you had not a clue.
You always put me to blame
Whether with your children or the loss at a video game,
And when in the mirror I saw the reoccurring cost
I knew then, that I was lost.
I always tried my very best to please
But, still with my emotions and feelings you did tease,
And when I was treated by you and your children the worst
You then proudly put your ex-wife first.
Now I have left your sorry and ungrateful ass
I will prove to you and also to myself I still have class,
Now that I am no longer there
You now need me and you pretend that you do care.
