Shandée - The Strength Within

 

With hope and strength within her heart and mind, The wife sets forth on a new path to take, Yet trials and challenges she cannot leave behind, As problems multiply with each new break. Two children hers, two more her spouse's kin, Her blended family far from balanced seems, Her husband treats them as if they're thin, His disrespect causing tensions and extreme. She strives to win the love of all her new brood, But they refuse to give her the affection she needs, While he flirts with women and is often rude, Blaming her for problems, as his selfishness feeds. In her own house she's learned she can't trust, A man who's passion lies beyond their bed, Their blended family is fractured and bust, As car accidents and arguments leave her feeling dead. She musters up her courage and takes a stand, To seek a brighter future far away, Leaving all the pain and strife at hand, And start anew, on a brighter day. Dear wife, you're strong and brave and true, Seek the happiness that you deserve to find, And remember that your destiny's up to you, For you hold the key to the future that you'll bind.
