Divorce is Hell.....Custody too

[HSSweetheart]

My daughter's school counselor called me at work Tues to say she was upset with her parents fighting. Luckily they called her father first and he said we don't fight, only text. He claims to not say anything bad about me in front of them. Doesn't sound that way to me. That started this lovely downfall of my emotions on the rollercoaster. I wrote this:

My child is hurting, that is clear to see
All I want is for her to be pain free
But how can I do that when I am in pain?
So many thoughts now fill my brain

She was the strong one I used to think
Good thing she is too young to drink
A good example I want to show
But how can that be done? I do not know

My family is broken, it will not mend
Wasted money on lawyers I must now send
How could things go so wrong?
I’m sure it will turn up in a song

If only we could rewind time
I would not be writing this rhyme
We would be the family we were meant to be
Of that I can clearly see…..
