Abuser Left Behind

She had been married to him For three agonizing years Tired of all the abuse Long ago she ran out of tears She knew what she had to do She had to get away For her kids and herself She needed to find a brighter day Finally she found a way To leave all the misery behind Hoping one day down the road Happiness in life she would find One day she saw an old boyfriend Soon they reconnected It was now she realized He's the one she should have selected Too late to think about the past For the past is dead and gone Time to look straight ahead Time to keep moving on Because all of her bad days Were left far behind Now she's happy and content Living life with a peaceful mind Her children are all grown Living out on their own Knowing their mother is happy With her new husband and home 7-28-20
