It has been twenty years
My respect for him has disappeared
Not all at once but day by day
Like an ink pen brand new
Each day you write
Sometimes standing up wasn't as clear
As sitting down in a chair
At a desk soft and smooth the ink pen flowed
Unlike the relationship now old
It seems there wasn't a day that I didn't have my pen
To hide my tears
It gave confidence each time I wrote
Being in control of my feelings on paper opened my mind
But dealing with him took some time
Life took its toll on him
He was working so many hours each day
When he came home he would drink the profits away
When I'm at home at night I'm alone
Open my bed side drawer pull out my Bible once more
As I turn through the pages and start to read
giving myself that hope I have been denied in my relationship with this man
It seems the security he provides outweighs the happiness im denied
Not knowing if I were to leave him
There would be someone better out there for me
Married in the eyes of the Lord is not as easy as we read
But knowing both husband and wife need to respect God
Otherwise the relationship has no foundation
Twenty more years to go
God please take control of his soul
