Drowning In Deceit

Honestly,

I am fed up with it all,

There is nothing more to say.

You are a drunk,

You lie,

You cheat,

You embarrass me and mine.

You never think your wrong.

Yet, I am to turn the other cheek.

Quietly watch you drink?

Now you want what?

My forgiveness, again and again,

It has to stop!
