Can't Go Back
I've been here two days
It feels like two weeks
I want to go home
I want my babies
But now there's
No going back again
Time can't heal this
There's not enough time
In forever to ever ever
Ever stop this pain
Because of hate
Because of hurt
Because of words
That never see
Forgiveness
Why am I
Unforgivable
Why can't I be given
The same things
That I have given
Love, compassion
Understanding and
Forgiveness
I let him come back
Twice
I let him see his
Babies
But I'm vulgar disgusting
Worthless nothing
And I'm not allowed
To go back
And I wasn't allowed
To live there even
When I lived there
But it's not the house
That was never a home
It's not sleeping on
Someone's floor and
Not having a place to reside
It's not waking up the kids
And being there by their side
It's not having my things
Still have my
Wedding ring
I should toss it to the wind
Just like he did years ago
But it's all I have left
And nothing is right
And never will be again
And never even was
To begin with
It's only been two days
Of knowing the ache
Of can't ever go back
But it feels like eternity
Here empty
Without you and me
And my babies
Can't go back
Can't go on
Can't see tomorrow
Anymore

This is deeply distressing on many levels, Madinda. Firstly, I hope it's not autobiographical; secondly, unless you've been deemed an unfit mother, no one can legally keep you from your children. There is free legal council to assist with these things. Lastly, while it's difficult to believe in times such as these, things will get better if you don't give up. ☀❤
I know it's cliche; however, rock bottom is the perfect place to start climbing up to a new life. ❤

It gets easier. Sounds like a stupid, simple thing to say...but it’s completely true. Time won’t heal it, but will make it easier to endure, easier to find and hold the things that WILL heal it. In the meantime, your words are powerful and honest as always

This is achingly raw and I applaud you a thousand times over for baring it so bravely. Life IS raw and to cover it with saccharine goodness is a desperate veil. I hope that things turn around for you quickly, and you find a love for yourself. It starts there. Without it, you will always search for it in the wrong places....Love and light to you sweetness <3

We're feeling for you Miss Medinda and this piece shows how much you ache. We were hoping and praying that things would work out and we will continue to do so. Just have faith and try not to worry yourself sick

Sounds like there is no more fight left. Things can only get better as others have said. They can't get any worse at least.

My dear friend, I've been in your same position. I'm not going to lie. It's distressing and bitter. You don't deserve it, I'm sure. But when those who swore eternal love to us as we to them, crack us down just because they know that by using the love of our flesh and blood to blackmail and kill us slowly, well, at that point, we know that it wasn't love. So we wake up, wash our face and we fight with our nails and teeth. Yes, because if we wait, hoping that they come to their senses, it will not happen. My dear friend, I don't know your story, but I know that by waiting for a break through, I lost my daughters forever. You stand and fight with the law by your side. No mercy for the partner you knew. No forgiveness. They have shown non for us. Forgive my rawness, but I can't stand bullies who abuse a loving heart. Hugs and blessings to you. J

Update, it's been awhile now. I just read this anew and although the trouble did ease, it has gotten so much worse. And I thank you deeply for this commentary because that is where I stand now, ready to fight. Merciless, tooth and nail. It's gone too far! Thank you!

If this you describing your current situation and feelings; please seek outside help. There must be women's support groups, church, self support, etc. in your area. Your babies need you. Don't think otherwise. Although I can't be certain, impression I have in the current climate, is that a Woman's voice will get listened too.
