I Got The Best From You

Two people in a room
shaped like a square ,
pale orange is the tune
although their not in there
so easy I was fooled
to think they were a pair
plastic was the spoon
it turned a sweet nightmare .

Chocolate cups
air fresheners
rocking in a pot
of kicked down doors
a cockroach in a cot  
and painted floors
times gone but not forgot
inside four walls .  

A longed for  , new life shot
scrapyard , backyard
parking lot
where you two
did sit and rot
in a rusty old robot
I was there was I not
you were scared
and he blew pot
tempers flared
and blared red hot
unknown I cared  
for the cradle he rocked .

I did all I could for you
the years , they have flew
the tears
have pressed
print blue ,
you broke my heart
and apart
we grew .

You gave more
no less
three kids are all
of the best
so I have to express
my thanks to you
in excess .
