Broken glass Lying on the floor Broken glass It is no more Broken glass Shattered into pieces Dreams gone awry Desperately she does cry Tears fill each eye As midnight draws nigh Her stomach in knots He has been caught Adulterous and wayward Perverse and froward To her he pleads As he moves toward To explain his pain The reason for his vain Pursuit of pleasure Which proved fruitless Evil and erroneous Deadly and disastrous Meanwhile she The desperate housewife Wonders what Will become of her life Full of uncertainty Grasping for her identity Wandering what will be The end of he Who acted so foolishly Will he err repeatedly And whether or not She will abide faithfully Contemplating acting vengefully Responding similarly Trying to gather and collect herself Totally, fully, and wholeheartedly Endeavoring to integrate her parts Parts all saying something different Overcome his defiance and irreverent Behavior which is a slap in her face A private and public disgrace Her heart has now been misplaced Bitterness and gall does she now taste Should she simply quit And remove herself from the race The endurance run of marriage To which she said, "I do" Or shall she forgive And press on through? So many options to consider too! Considering the children Counting the cost Communicating with characters Who have never been hurt or lost Hardened hearts Who don't understand How then shall they counsel me In a waste place and barren land A destitute place of the heart Where all joys seemingly depart And my intellect is not so smart As I try so hard to feel my way through I ask you dear God, what shall I do?
