                                                                     you left him there
alone with strangers
abandoned like an old
used toy
never looking back
never caring what happened

now your back
trying to undo what was done
to rewrite the past
to try to undo the damage
that was done
to reclaim what you
think is yours

impossible
he has moved on
made a life
forgotten the past
forgotten you
he is happy
let him be
let him live

I am used to read sad poems here Nick but this is just shocking. And brutally true. Happens way too often.

Looks like a beautiful man in a womb of rock. He must break out of it.

The poem is just so telling!
