And They Make Us Suffer;We grow in life, and learn of things; And later, we fall in love, then falter; Because sometimes things go wrong, And things will change and alter. Some people have a harsh life, And sadly they get a divorce, After that, we don't know what happens, It's simply a matter of course! And then the kid's attitudes change, So we are put through hell; And all because we want to be happy, But sometimes, we are in turmoil as well. Because the kids don't want mum to be happy, Oh no, but they want her in pain and strife; And why do you think that is? Well of course, they want a happy life! So they want us to stay as we were, Sad, miserable and alone; And so they make us suffer; We are prisoners in our own home! But though we are as sad as can be; And we need to move on in life! The kids don't agree, for selfish reasons! And those reasons cause us such strife! They grow and move away; Leaving us in a miserable way; And all because of their selfishness; And that guilt trip causes us to stay! But then we wizen up a bit, And realise this isn't right! Why should we be so sad and alone? And cry in our beds at night! No reason that I can see! So we have a choice to make; Stay or go, go or stay? But our sanity's at stake! So we make the choice for us! And decide what it is we do! Leave the marriage, go it alone; And work it out, and see it through! And then the kids punish us; Playing a game of the mind; Letting us believe we are the cruel ones, For leaving the partner behind! But those kids will move on one day, Make a life for them so true; And if they decided they are unhappy, Then they do what they have to do! So they make their choice and move on, But do they consider the parents at all? No, because it's their life! And we don't matter it's their life, their call! So they decide that they want to be happy, And no matter what that means will pass; As long as they do it for them! But then we're shattered like crystal glass! Because at the end of the day; The end result is only one thing; They have their life, no matter what! While we are left in a guilty ring! That guilty ring circles us; And binds us as tight as can be; And why is that you think? Well, that's because we weren't true to we!!! So we stay to keep them happy, Make things ok; and ease their pain! And in doing so, that choice we made; Is binding us in unhappiness again! Do we do it for ourselves? Or do we do it for others? Your choice; your call! Make it count! Because we count! Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem
