All About Love and Then Some

When I wrote that particular poem, Unhappiness, I was at my height of misery, not knowing where to turn. Finally, after fifteen years of a hell-like marriage, I ran. I took my two children, my daughter, aged thirteen, and my son, aged ten, and packed all our clothing and left. I stayed with a sister who lives in another state. I was on my own from then on. I finally had the courage to leave. My life was now revolving around my two children and self. We now had peace of mind, and we survived very nicely.

If anyone who reads this finds themselves in a marital predicament like mine, my advice is take courage, be brave, and do whats best for you and your children. You will survive.
