Questions:
How did I find myself here?
What was I going to do without him in my life?
What down falls had led to this?
How could he do this to me?
What is so bad about me that he left?
How am I going to pick up the pieces and start over?
When did he stop loving me?
Were all the promises, just lies?
I wrote a poem on the one-year anniversary when he had moved out about the situation:
One year ago today, you moved out of my life and left me an emotional wheelchair and a financial cripple.
You made me all kinds of promises to help pay the bills that you and I accumulated together.
You said that you "loved" me but you had to do what you had to do.
You have now moved on to "get your life back on track".
You have told so many lies your whole life that you really believe them yourself.
You made promises to me and God.
Stop now, look at God and ask him if he is pleased with you…
