"The story of Us"

"The story of Us"

A Poem by AssonanceWriter

Whiskey, liquor, alcohol, and drugs

Counterfeit overflowing with fake Love

I leave our daughter to you

I have our son and a different partner now

The paint on my face is never enough

When we were together the world was real

Now everything is false

I no longer value dignity


Whiskey, liquor, alcohol, and drugs

With you, there was actually a tint of Love

Something came in between the both of us

You broke my heart and shattered my beliefs in Love

You didn’t strive to keep our relationship true

With two children how could you be so cruel

When I left I expected one last hug

You showed no emotion when you were the most sensitive at start

I spend my whole life trying to forget the both of us


Whiskey, liquor, alcohol, and drugs

With the touch of his hands and rushed start

My baby boy watches the stranger silently

He grows up slowly evolving to remind me of You

Relationships don’t usually last long

The paint on my face is never enough

I’m so sorry that my baby boy had to go through so much


Whiskey, liquor, alcohol, and drugs

The man I’m with does not compare to you

We fight, argue, and push each other down

The bruises, the kisses, the eyes of my Child

Counterfeit overflowing with fake love

I miss You

I don’t have the strength to visit you

If only my baby boy knew

If only he had met you

Maybe this wouldn’t hurt so much


Whiskey, liquor, alcohol, and drugs

My baby boy is being taken from my hold

I’m arrested and being confined

I never abused or mistreated my child once

I’m just unstable and ruined

I’ll do whatever it takes to not repeat the same mistakes again

Whiskey, liquor, alcohol, and drugs


This is the story of us
