In my depths of despair 

I found myself clinging 

Holding onto what remained 

Of you, and of us 
Onto the hands of my daughter 
It pained me to see you leave her 
To walk away, and leave us 
As if we were nothing 
Cast aside so easily 

Until I decided, one day 

No more

I am worthy 

I am enough 

I am more 

I looked outside the walls of my own home 

Unsure what it was I was searching for 

My heart longing to be held once more 

And there, there you were 

No expectations, we both had said 

But who were we to create

Such falsities and innocent remarks 

When expectations form 

Amongst our imagination without our regard 

True it was, our minds began to gamble

One more, just one more everything;

One more late night endless drive  

One more bad post sex meal 

One more time to be hold one another 

One more go at it all 

Until reality called and spoke 

You can not have this 

You do not deserve, to be happy 

To feel free and unreserved 

This was not meant for you 

Your roads have crossed 

At an impossible point in your life

Daily routine needs you back 

How could one expect

To have no expectations 

To not cling to hope 

The mind reaching at answers 

This is it

This is why 

People embark in affairs
