Stronger
How did I get to this lonely place
Am I that much of a homely disgrace
I sit around here so fucking pathetic
Pointlessly waiting for you to be apologetic
Why bother trying to fool me with your lies
Your trickery brings me to so many cries
Why do I care, I already said it was over
I need to let you go so I can finally get some closure
Thank you for fucking up yet again
Reminding me my choice is not made in vane
I am no longer confused on my decision
I now own hind sight's 20/20 vision
All these years I thought I needed to change
My whole life for you I would rearrange
Now I see that you are the one to fault
So I am bringing this "marriage" to a screeching halt
I wish you the best of luck with your new life
Maybe it will be better without a loving wife
I hope we can stay civil for our three kids
Knowing you, that won't be where I put my bids
So pack your shit and get out of my face
You are no longer welcome in my new found space
I am fighting angry; sad I am no longer
Because of this, I am now even stronger

This is very true. I am afraid I am not done with the tears though. I have my waves of anger and sadness. My poetry will reflect that I guess.
Thanks for the encouraging words! Very much appreciated.

Well spoken. I only wish my divorce could have ended so strong. Using kids as ammo was bullshit. You stood your ground and showed that you are an equal. He will have to choose friend or foe. Great write Rachel. I didn't expect anything less than perfect from you.

I am afraid when it is all over with he will choose foe. :(
But it is his choice to make.
Oy...please expect less than perfect, or else you will be disappointed. :P
Thanks so much for the comment...as always it is appreciated! :)

You are like a rose that shouldn't be picked. You are perfect right where you are;)

Rachel since you been on DU, you have set this place on fire.
Each piece you post, gets bolder and this one is so relatable.
I know I keep saying you are growing, I sincerely mean it.
I am so happy you had the strength to rise and roll.
Cheers to your work and brighter future.
