Overlooked

A family misunderstanding.

She tries so hard to please him
Whenever he is near
He never even sees her
Her patience is rather clear
However much he loves her
He has given no proof
Strangers claim perfection
She argues with the truth
He only shows three emotions
Anger, hatred, rage
She is determined
This woman believes she makes her own fate
Once long ago he did love her
Oh how long ago
Before he learned of her betrayel
His nemesis, arch-rival, foe
If only he could listen
To anything she says
She could make him understand
The reason for that day
She tries too hard to love her child
Bore of this horrible mistake
His father's face she sees in him
Oh that awful face
He never loved her
But together they bore this one
All the tragedy that followed
Created with "his" gun
He forced his way into her home
What followed was her bed
She cried out in pure disgust
The nightmare would never die
Oh a sad beginning trailed by the end
A marriage torn to pieces
A rapist lay dead
