Mother For Life

Dear Mr Black Cloud,

I’d like you to go away now, you’ve caused enough damage. They say what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, well I’m tough enough already please. Don’t you think its time you moved on to someone else? You’ve been following me for eight years now, aren’t I boring enough for you yet? Haven’t you done almost everything you possibly could to me? Let’s have a mini re-cap shall we:

1. Stuck me in a marriage with an abusing shallow excuse for a man.
2. When I was brave enough to leave that, you took my home away from me and my kids.
3. When I caught a break and found a friend to stay with, you made sure he attached strings I wasn’t prepared to pay for.
4.When I found a new home, you left me alone for a few months, long enough to find my love, and get a sense of confidence back.
5.Then it was time to hit again, you made sure that after I finally got my license back,  you broke my brakes.
6. When I fixed the front ones, you broke my brake-line.
7. When I fixed that, you gave me a car accident.
8. After I paid for that, you shut my water off and got my building condemned.
9.When I finally got a break and found another home, you made sure that I couldn’t keep my water source on for the little time I needed it.

There’s plenty more Mr. Black Cloud, but those are just the biggies. Please stop now and quit raining on my parade. I’m one of the good guys. I don’t lie, cheat, or steal my way through life. I work hard, and love harder. Any bad deeds I must have done in a past life have surely been paid for by now. I’m trying to look at your silver lining, but you are making it very difficult to do that. I have the addresses of a few nasty people that you would find much more to your style than me. Please move on now.

Sincerely,

The woman who’s fighting her way through your darkness, but could use a little help here
