A truth that’s told with bad intent,

Beats all the lies you can invent.

Though that may have been your mission,

I find you guilty by omission.

I never should have had to ask,

It’s such a pointless, futile task.

Rings on fingers built on trust,

Not on sins like greed and lust.

I trusted you and was betrayed,

Now should I leave or should I stay?

Do you deserve a second chance?

Or do I make change of circumstance?

I know that it would be a shame,

To throw everything we have away.

You say that I’m overreacting,

But you’re no longer benefacting.

Fool me once and shame on you,

I must avoid a shameful two.

How do I explain this to the kids?

Will they understand the things you did?

When you said you left me some cake,

Not coming clean was your mistake.

Cos when I saw that tiny sliver,

Divorce papers could have been delivered.
