Once i had a life, i could think of me,
go anywhere, feel free,but now there's "he"

As soon as "he" was there, i had gone, but where?
Turmoil began, pain, drain and without a brain, i am now insane.

Something within me, decided oneday, that when "he" came, i should go away.Now i am lost, i want to go home, release me from this hellish dome.

I see the path laid out for me, it's tough its rough yet somehow, somewhere within me, if i listen to my guide, i will be led, to a better place, alive, or dead.

As long as i have my faith, i will always, travel each path with you by my side.
We have been through so many things throughout my life,i have asked for your help so many times.

I ask again, as i sit and write, as my cuckoo strikes eleven times this night.
Help me find myself again, eliminate those very men,that feed and need all that i am, and be, they don't really give a damn about me.

I need the strength to take it back, all i have given, and get back on track.
I have to focus on what i want from my life,yet somehow it went wrong, when i became a wife.

A voice within, tried to speak so loud, i ignored what was said being too proud.
i guess that i seem so ungrateful now, please forgive me and show me how,
i can find the real "me," i promise this time, i will listen to thee.

The poem is nice & sad. Man & woman are an integral part of each other , but with the change in times their relationship has seen changes & we live in a time where more & more relationships face strain. Only God can do something about this & men( including women!) have to co-operate.
