HE


He started out so different from who he is today
When the changes happened he really couldn't say

The sparkling eyes and his sweet boyish grin
A strong masculine jaw with his clefted chin

His heart of gold with his ever creative mind
Treasures untold for any woman to find

In time it became clear to the loves of his life
His darkening soul that betrayed his lovely wife

Betrayed his children let his whole family down
This small town boy from his beloved small town

He seemed to think his dishonor was hidden well
His pain his deceitfulness his own private hell

One woman was not enough to fill his deep need
He became just a vessel to go out to spread seed

As sure as the sun always sets in the west
He knew that he was no longer living his best

His sleep was disturbed his confidence had failed
His whole existence was becoming so derailed

The love of his wife had turned to cold stone
He knew he should never have left her alone

Those girls who he gave too much of his time
Spread so thin he gave while still in his prime

Now he is alone even with a fun crowd
The silence in his ears is deafening loud

At night he copes as best he can
The legacy of an unfaithful man
