He came into my life 12 yrs ago,
A wall of destruction, a life without a pulse
A toxicity that filled my veins head and heart
The worst comedown in my 41yrs
was rehabbing you out of my mind
Today I am free but our child does bind
She didn't see the alcohol fuelled vile
You spat in my face year after year
the touch ups the tears
The broken lives that filled this house
She only sees her dad, her pedestal is high
Today was your day as I kissed her goodbye
But tonight I am filled with so much anger for you
For her I give my strength to endure the lifetime ahead
Promises made and as broken as I
placed your evil look in my baby's eyes
Instead of kisses hello mum and a hug
I got abuse attitude and hatred tonight

Because of you,
I AM THE BAD ONE

I had never spoken ill to my daughter regarding her father, she is now 22 and has a beautiful mind of her own.
