They Have No Clue

They have no clue the heartache they cause
They have no clue the hurt they cause
They have no clue the cruel things they say stick with us forever
They have no clue how much our kids go through
They have no clue the damage lasts forever
They have no clue how our hearts ache
They have no clue that just because they don't remember, we do and will never forget
They have no clue how much we hope for an apology
They have no clue that when we finally get an apology how much more it would mean if we knew it wouldn't happen again
They have no clue how much we crave a normal life
They have no clue how much we dread and fear when they drink just "one" more
They have no clue what they do to our self esteem
They have no clue how cruel and hurtful they can be
They have no clue what they do to our mind, our heart, and our soul
THEY HAVE NO CLUE

oh they have a clue, in the morning when they have come out of the haze some they see the damage that has been done. They know the hurt and the heartache because they have it to. They crave a normal life, and they fear, and their self esteem is a bloated false ego boosted by the booze. They harm themselves as much as they harm us. Sometimes they do remember even if they say they don't. They have a clue they just drown it out.......
