SLEEP BABY!!!




She is 26 yrs old, has no child and was married for 2 years when her husband told her he wanted a divorce. The first year of their marriage was spent apart due to both of them working in different cities, each weekend she took the train to go and see him and then she would get back to her apartment on Monday morning ready for work on Tuesday since Monday was her day off.

When the year ended her boss gave her a transfer to their office in the same city he was working. This news couldn’t have come at a better time. So she calls him to tell him the good news. When he picked up it did not seem like good news to him but anyway he made arrangements to pick her up and have all her things brought to his apartment. After only being there for 3 wks he tells her he wants a divorce after they got into a physical altercation. He told her that he promised himself that he would never lay his hands on his wife, and now that he has he cannot be married to her." Of course she was devastated, she thought THEY WERE HAPPY...THEY NEED COUNSELING NOT A DIVORCE!!!! and began to beg and plead with him to rethink this, and that they needed counselling not divorce. He said they did not need counselling; he was not going to change his mind. He then stayed with her for the next two weeks acting like he never told her he wanted a divorce.

One day while going through their cell phone bills she finds out that he had been talking to his ex-girlfriend on the phone for the last month. After she confronted him on that he then told her he had changed his mind he wanted a divorce (but as you can see from above, he never told her that he wanted to work things out) so she said fine and moved out. He then told her a week later that even though he wanted a divorce he still wanted to be with her, so basically he wanted her to go from being his wife to his girlfriend. she then cussed him out, but they continued to have sex ( stupidly she allowed) and she ended up pregnant. When she told him she was pregnant, he told her he to get an abortion (which was even more offending) and said what made her think he wanted to have a child with her he didn’t even want to be married to her. She had a miscarriage a week later, and she still hasn't heard from him. She filed for divorce last week and they have a divorce date on Aug 12. She did everything for this guy, LITERALLY.... he even admits it. But he says that he wasn’t happy with her, and that the reason he speaks to his ex is because she knows him better. She is beyond hurt, I she hasn’t had a healthy appetite since and has a REALLY hard time leaving her apartment. She get so depressed going grocery shopping, she has had food delivered to her everyday for the past 45 days. She can't concentrate at work, and wake up basically every morning crying. She feels so alone, depressed & helpless its ridiculous, and she is so ashamed of it because she knows that she has it good. No KIDS for one, and she wasn't married that long.... but it feels like she will never leave the house, that she will never find love again or even a support system. She has tried to hate him, but she love him so much.... she always asks herself why…Why...why every minute of every day. She even ask why in her sleep:

Then she hears her alarm go off and she sit up out of the bed and she is back to her sweet 24 with her dog windy lying down on the rug. Is it possible that in one night she had lived more than 3 years?

I FORGET YOU

Ripped and taped up feelings
for things we just cant face
fallen but not yet broken
are the memories we cant erase

lost but not forgotten
are the places we used to stay
gone but not forever
is tomorrow's yesterday

but time is moving slowly
and I'm trapped behind closed doors
i don't want to remember
anything from before

i feel like I've betrayed you
because i want to leave this place
and somehow staying here
is just too much for me to take

so here's your static lullaby
here's your empty heart
i am letting go of everything
that's made me fall apart

this is my silent goodbye
i bid my memories adieu
cause I'm better off happy
somewhere i cant remember you

ripped and torn up feelings
are the things that we face
fallen chipped and broken
are the memories we erase

lost and now forgotten
are the places we used to stay
gone right now forever
are memories of yesterday
