Standing in the middle of an emotional roadLooking at both sides of the streetOne side is filled with possible changesThe other is abusive repeatsYou say he loves you and you love himYou speak of his qualities goodYou say that his love is not just a whimBut he does not do the things that he shouldYou talking about staying togetherThat’s what relationships are aboutHe’s left you to battle stormy weatherWith fear and continuous doubtYour hope is that change will occurAnd yet he still gets his wayIt’s obvious you’re still unsureIt seems like you’re deciding to stayYou cling to the hope of a changeTo offer a better futureBut if he always gets what he wantsYou’re already the big looserIf children are part of the mixIt then becomes more criticalHe can’t use his immature tricksTheir life down the road -more pitifulYou eventually have to cross to a sideYou can’t stand there and just hideIt’s time to make a decisionWhen looking for the best future vision

Sometimes when one finds themselves in a situation like this, they are torn and they are stuck. They know exactly what they are dealing with and though they may not be happy with the situation, they'd rather stay in that lane and endure misery rather than to start anew with unknown possibilities which can be quite scary. I have a friend who is going through this situation you wrote about and he has been indevisive on what to do. As a result, his kids are being pulled in so many different directions while he and his wife are too caught up with their own issues with each other to even notice what they're both putting their kids through. This is a very relevant piece because a lot of people are struggling with the one thing that is important - making a decision. Nice work as always, Maurice. 💜
