You've tested my patients time after time, <br />Each more trying than the last, <br />The family you broke in two, <br />And left by the side of the road, <br />Thrive on the strength of only one. <br /> <br />You left the one that matters most, <br />The one that's done nothing wrong, <br />And yet you do not see, <br />The damage has already been done. <br /> <br />You said you loved us both, <br />And yet you never tried, <br />To be the one that kept us safe, <br />I am doing it all on my own. <br /> <br />You turn up 6 months between, <br />Wanting to be involved in our lives, <br />Then leave never to be herd of again, <br />Till half a year goes by. <br /> <br />This family does not deserve this, <br />Especially the one that is to young, <br />To understand your reasons, <br />If any at all exist. <br /> <br />You are shallow and cruel, <br /> <br />I do my best to pick up the pieces, <br />That you left behind.<br /><br />Kelly Lushi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tested-times/
