I felt so proud when you trusted me
Trusted in me to set your memories free
I believed my love would somehow be enough
I trusted in, that we were made of the right stuff
Always to you I remained totally devoted
Eternally offering you solace I was completely absorbed 
Of your needs I was both sensitive and considerate
While being loving, passionate and affectionate
To heal your pain I felt increasingly powerless
When you pushed me away I felt betrayed and worthless
Between my husband and my son I felt trapped and torn
Echoing in my subconscious the vows I had once sworn
With your unpredictable behaviour I was so hurt and
cautious
As time passed I grew even more fearful and suspicious
Each time you fell, I felt so alone, empty and lost
Hiding feelings of being scared, heartbroken and crushed
Lying awake at night I’d feel tense, tired and weary
My heart displaying eyes that seemed forever teary
I loved you so much then, I still love you now
I’m trying to forget you, but I'm not sure how
With every day gone by I miss a piece of you
A piece of the gentle loving man I once knew
The love I once shared I desire to mourn
As my heart bleeds hopefully no longer shall I feel torn?
