We won’t sink back into darkness. I don’t want that for either of us. I’ve worked so hard to be a better father, husband, human. I won’t jeopardise that and my hard fought sanity. Nor do I want to hurt you ever again.
And you’re a locked up box. I don’t have the key.
You’re not a horrible monster. You just made a decision, at a very difficult time. Decisions have consequences. My heart, soul and sanity were the consequence. My decisions had consequences too, I acknowledge that, but there’s one difference. It’s all in my lines. I won’t rehash it.
I didn’t write those poems to hurt you. When it all got too much, that’s all I had...
The sea saved me this week. I walked past that little car park where you dropped me off that day and **** near lost the ability to breathe.
I can’t stay here any longer. I fly home today. Dad’s back on his feet for now. I asked him what he’s going to do when his frivolous bipolar spending spree runs out. He calmly replied. Suicide.
I have not-so-little humans who need my energy. He doesn’t deserve any more.
When you read my lines, beneath the pain, I still love you. I can’t feel the warmth from your heart. Mine is cold. Your well wishes are welcome.
