Array ( [sid] => 157330 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => What is our life....... [time] => 2010-02-07 04:44:02 [hometext] => Just something in real life that has happened to me recently [bodytext] =>

We made commitments you and I
To love and hold until we die
To respect and support and love each other
And raise our family, sister and brother
To be honest and faithful, right to the end
Now we find potholes, our life took a bend

You've had an affair, oh how this has hurt
I found out the hard way, now I feel lower than dirt
My heart its a broken, in bits ever so small
Did you think about this, a little? not at all?
Here is me, still being faithful and true
Despite being so blue, I do still love you

Did you think about talking, working it all out
I would have understood, even if you had to shout
I know we had our problems, with me being so tired
Me sleeping days, working nights, not wanting to be fired
You say I neglected you, surely you should have said
Instead of an affair, that's made me feel like being dead

"I didn't like your friends", that one reason youve raised
When they are here I ignore them, are you really amazed?
I don't speak their language, and at home youre all one
they all speak English, in our home its what they should have done
I thought it was rude and impolite, knowing I no understood
I just walked out, or my cool I'd lose.... i really could

Your friends think I'm a snob, and I think they're most rude
What do you expect, when in conversation they don't include
I sit there ignored, while they chatter, laugh and glance my way
"You're paranoid, nothing said of you", this is what you say
But please try to see it from my view, is all I ever asked
you couldn't see how I felt, as months of this passed

Now my hearts in a mess, my head always in thought,
of what you have done, this heartache you have brought
How do I go on, oh what do I do with myself now
I want you here, but with no trust left, just how?
I'm willing to try, but now here you must expect
That it will take a long time, to regain that respect

I do still love you, you're still in my heart
And you want to stay, and make a new start
But changes have to happen, as this has hurt me so deep
As commitments were broken, and vows thrown out in a heap
I don't ask too much, but one thing is true
Honesty and truth is what I need from you.

If we are to go on, there is a long road to tread
Not friends or family..... A counselor instead,
Discussions and compromises and rules put in place
And realize it may take a long time to see my happy face
Many tears are going to fall, over this that has occurred
From feelings and emotions, and anger that has stirred

But I hope that we make it, and obstacles overcome
And that once again, in future we become one
Realize what you've done, and feel the regret
know it was wrong, and keep no more secrets
Friends need be told, in English we speak at home
OUR family is more important to us, Than anyone weve known [comments] => 3 [counter] => 194 [topic] => 32 [informant] => JustMe [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

You poured out your heart. Thoughts go to you. I hope it all does rebuild for you. A broken trust is hard to mend.
Keep your chin up.
