two days before Thanksgiving you asked me to leave our house because you were "tired" and "unhappy" and "overwhelmed" knowing i had no job, no car & we would've been homeless i couldn't make sense of it and usually it was you who did the leaving and i had to clean up the mess every few months when you were "tired" what you didn't tell me came to light after you begged me to come home making promises you never intended to keep until she showed up at my house in front of our daughter playing messages where you were telling her that you loved her after knowing her maybe 3 weeks? she wanted you to pay for hurting her not giving a **** that i was someone's wife & there was a child within ear shot having to hear these things she cried because you "broke her heart" and i cried because nobody should've been hurt i hugged her because i'm an idiot for taking on a pain that wasn't mine but i felt so guilty for all this because i was so used to carrying your guilt & you told me after we were evicted that it was all about the money that you were laying with the farmers daughter because you somehow felt entitled to a better life you should've told me these things you should've been honest but i've never been allowed that and i thought i was strong enough to make things work but some things are so broken that there's no mending & it's useless pretending & i'm sure there were so many others because nothing about our "marriage" was ever solid, or loving, or whole it was just me being drug back and forth promises, promises, promises lies, lies, lies and i never really knew you because no one really does you become whatever you need to if it'll make your life "easy" you were still doing terrible things things that i will never tell anyone about when i decided that i couldn't stay because i was so close to breaking and completely losing myself and i honestly felt like i would die had i stayed and i wanted what was best for everyone & sometimes the best is freedom
