Promises unkept, hidden secrets untold
letters from another, the truth unfolds Gone past hours, should have been home not where you said you'd be, a heart that roams The sun coming up, still no word from you wondering who is it this time, is it someone new? The kids start to wake and I haven't gone to bed I look in their faces seeing questions unsaid. I give them a hug and hold them tight At least they know Mommy is here, every night. You walk through the door like nothing is new You no longer hide what it is that you do. You set your coat down and glance my way, then go take a shower and go on with your day. We watch as again you go out the door As I hold my kids as my knees hit the floor. Silence fills the room as we sit and stare waiting for a man's return who we know won't be there. 11-13-09 |
