Quote: "Please Don't Let My Children Read This." - Sole
-------------------------
The cold sweat drips, as she sits and puts pen to paper
Her final thoughts escaping the mind of a lifelong faker
Showing false hope to all, the pretence sentenced in a mind’s court
Now she writes, putting down words, expressing her final thoughts.

My Darling Husband,
.
I can’t be with you no more; I can’t live with the painful lies,
You see my façade of strength, but you never here the cries.
The nights I sit alone, rocking myself within the darkness,
I can’t deal with it anymore, please don’t think I’m heartless.
I’ve tried to hold it together, but honestly I don’t know how,
So please take care of my kids, you’re their father now.
Believe me they do love you, despite all their fighting,
You may think I was handling life, but inside I was hiding.
The stress has become unbearable; I’m not strong enough,
Telling me you can’t live without me; I’m going to call your bluff.
You are the strongest person I know, anything you can handle,
I’ve survived as long as I can, but life’s extinguished my candle.
I have enough for a new life; I’ll be leaving in a hurry,
It’s just I can’t bear it another day; I don’t want to be a worry.
Know that I’ll love you always, and even though it pains me to say,
I can’t live with you or my children, not another single day.
But it’s not because I hate you, and really I do care,
I’m just too weak to support you; it’s just too painful there.
I need to make myself a new life, but I’ll check up now and then,
And who knows, in the future we may see each other again.
I'll never forget you ever, and please grant my final wish,
Please, I beg of you my love, don’t let my children read this.
.
Yours Always
Your Loving Wife.
