A very young man’s father
Ignored his good mother
Thus the young man’s pattern
Ignored his own wife’s needing
His best friend suddenly dumped
His own fiance for another woman
Then years way down the line he just
Dropped the woman in same manner
After projecting issues with mother
Onto her without clarifying desires
A different younger man struggled
Against being controlled by mother
Allowing this relationship tangle
To distort engaged commitment
Her own father abandonded her as child
Teaching love was only valued from afar
But then she met a man who fought hard
To keep his valued lover despite anything
Well yeah – she’d choose his mirroring like
Her own against-odds dedication – any day
