Worth Poem by Lilyann Monahan

The worse thing that you did,
was turn your daughters against me.
I would never do that with my children,
It's something they would never see.
In fact my children were told,
wonderful news about you,
and then I had to hide everything,
what else could I do?
There are several situations that would have gone rather well,
but as usual I had to live in a shell.
Proud of me? I wish I had it.
There was no pride in your eyes,
just leaving me with no answer,
was a nightmare and a surprise.
