How do you cope when the world catches fire

How do feel when you love a liar

When you call him on it, he rages

When he falls apart, it’s you he cages

How could you, he says, while committing the same sin

How could you ever believe with him you’d win

Why can’t you accept he’s cruel

Why can’t you stop trusting him, you look like a fool

What hold does he have when he’s already moved on

What power does he have anymore, when your heart is gone

Who is the answer to the questions actually

Who being them, my babies and me

Where will you find yourself when you’re all alone

Where do you start when you have no home…

The questions keep coming without pause

My friendship will ultimately be his loss

Taking back my power

To him I no longer cower

My kids have become my strength

The abuse I will no longer endure in any length

I hope he saves himself before it’s too late

His choices no longer affect my fate
