This is a true story about a couple who were wed after only 6 months of dating
Most folks would have given the relationship years to develop before swapping rings and
having kids. Keep reading as the story gets better.
I was on the rebound from a failed first marriage
One I ****** up by leaving a tad bit early
I tried to go back to her after a few weeks alone
By then she was like a spring flower
New bees were vying to collect her pollen
I couldn't believe only two weeks had passed
And I was denied a vital second chance
I was crushed but only a few years later
My second wife showed up at my party but she was dating another
I finally was able to arrange a date and from that night we began our journey
We agreed to get married after 6 months of dating
October 27 1979 was the date and it is still etched in my memory
I had found a woman to take away my pain
It's been years of ups and downs and 3 children raised are out of our house
Mirinda is child number one and married now with 2 kids in tow
Alex is 27 now and has a wedding to plan
Ashley our third still hates her dad
My wife Becky has been my rock since day one
The best mother and now with a promising career that's made me proud
My career has taken many turns
I have only had 3 good jobs over the years
I was a banker before I got greedy
Then a logistics coordinator at two other companies
It was drugs that caused me to do some stupid things
But I always able to rebound and get clean '
Then find another job and look for a match
One that would pay me more cash
I was so lucky not to have died from years of abuse
I quit the drugs but my body wanted another Vice
So on to beer and then hard *****
A lot of nights spent going to bed early
And not paying enough attention to my wonderful spouse
She began to feel neglected around her 54th bithday
She was so depressed she started looking up lost loves
Instead of confronting her aging husband
She began searching the web like a devious soul
She was tired of not getting enough attention
I was blind and did not see it coming
My wife soon was on the phone an talking to an old flame
Soon after they met and it was all in friendship
I found out later after I had checked phone records
That was last January, the third I remember
In that short time I was using again and my jealousy took a nasty spin
I believe she was seeing some other guy as her card charges caught my eye
After eight weeks of truths and lies I was supposed to believe her and stop
But I kept on playing cop after promising to stop on several occasions
Last Saturday she had had enough and left our home in a puff
She came back with 4 cops in tow and took some belongings and then went out the door
It's now Thursday and I am in my bedroom closet
It's now my makeshift office but it serves my needs
I sent one final e-mail to my beautiful wife
Asking for forgiveness and to came back home
But no answer back as I expected
Looks like I will soon be single
And then I can party and mingle
But why am I so **** miserable?
To Becky if you read this ...Can I have a final kiss?
Breaking up is really difficult especially when the family turns on you
