old mangled tree needs to be taken down
too many branches threaten to hurt
all those around used to sit in the yard
and watch that willow sway
still probably weeps for it’s location
such a rotten field with a sinking house
abandoned ideas of love
in a place filled with so much hate
cowardly cougar hopelessly hanging on
but the numbers will catch up
and then there is nothing left
worn out well before then
looking back it was crazy
to try to plant positive
in the rotten field of negativity
almost nothing of worth coming
from a five year mistake
no blame that isn’t my own
in the valley now next to the pond
finding myself positive every moment
left my negativity in the mangled trees
where the cougar dwells waiting
for another unsuspecting catcher of the eye…

You’ll be happy to know that the “cougar” found another guy ten years younger than her but he has turned it around on her. He meets lots of other women and she is a wreck. I think it’s fair to say, you reap what you sow. She is not trust worthy and the years are catching up with her. Stay strong and proud brother.
Thank you for reading my thoughts!
