Yelling
Screaming
He throws his hands up
She pulls at her hair
A glass goes across the room
Upon the wall you hear it crash
Down the hall
Photographs fall to the floor
Face to face
Nose to nose
Both ready to throw blows
Screaming! Torturous names being yelled
Tug of war of the kids
Not hearing their silent pleas
Mommy, daddy stop. Just stop please..
Still the yelling commences
All over her deciding to leave....
She takes the children, both happy to no longer be in the tug of war  
He hangs his head in shame
Knowing that he is to blame  
She sits in her car and cries
Watching 10 years go down the drain
