Dreading the Moment

dreading the moment when i have to force myself 
to realize  that the family i have care about money and
nothing about others dreading the moment when they 
realize that i was being truthful the entire time and 
all they think is that i am lying to them 

they dont think what they do effects others all they 
do is what they want say what they want and believe all the lies
dreading the moment when my love and i leave this 
mess for a good while and let them think that something 
happened to me and let them believe it 

but when i come back fully changed and i remember nothing
about them and they dont understand why i am saying the 
things i do but sooner or later they will regret and feel so 
guilty about what they did to me and they will try to come up to 
me and apologize for what they have done and its too late

im not dreading the moment when i get to feel the full 
satisfaction of knowing that they realize that they were
in the wrong to keep the truth from me and lie to me the entire time 
but when they see all that they have done to me did not effect me 
or the man i fell in love with and see him playing with our children 

they will begin to regret everything they have done and try 
to make it seem like nothing ever happened between us 
but little do they know when they so come up they will be arrested 
and sued for violation of a no contact order and a restraining order
between me, my husbend; my kids and that messed up thinking family
