I know I should only look back

To see how far I have come

But I look over my shoulder

And all unravels and is undone

Where did I go wrong

What did I do

When I look back

All I see is you

The hatred in your eyes

The wrath gleaming on your fist

I cower in the corner

Tell me what have I missed

That was the first time

My first mistake of many

Never was it love

Never was there any

Then came a moment

One of complete control

You tried to form me

Into your perfect mold

I forged my own path

And walked away

I wish I had truly

Always been that brave

Then there was the one

The one who took me in

He made it all seem so perfect

At first I thought it was a win

Everything I did was wrong 

And I was made to feel small

Nothing I could do was right

Not a single thing, not at all

The fights were always silent

You made me to blame

I once again lost myself

I was not the same

Away on business

You found comfort in another

Me at home tossed aside

Forgotten wife and mother

You broke apart

What I thought could be good

No more role as a husband or father

I never really understood

Life is such a blur

I wish I could start again

I am not sure what is left

Alone, I am my only friend
