THE AFFAIR
Lost and afraid children seek for hope,
between the anger and fighting they cannot cope,
they flee from home into the arms of darkness,
where drugs and users drown its harshness.
The affair seems ever so exhilarating,
the intrigue and secrecy so exciting,
nothing ever remains a secret for long,
as it bashes the family to pieces with wrong.
There is so much disappointment, sorrow and shock,
the mind and heart both shut down and lock,
while one runs out and slams the door,
the other falls in tears onto the floor.
Such a betrayal causes so much pain,
something inside dies in the pouring rain,
nothing is ever the same again,
the respect and trust is all down the drain. ©
